I wrote that! The canonical version is here:

  Has anyone worked on removing the dependency on
  WikifiedMessagesPlugin?

Wondering why you want to do that?

I also  wrote that plugin which is designed to be overridden. I also
find the wikification of displayed text very useful and easily escaped
by wrapping displayed messages in '{{{ }}}':

  This removes the need to close displayed messages, by making them
  automatically disappear after a short interval.
  The FadingMessagesPlugin depends on another new plugin, the
 http://whatfettle.com/2008/07/WikifiedMessagesPlugin/
  which enables displayed messages to contain wikified content.

 Although ...


Yeah... what Eric said, :-D

 3) ... a text option input field to enter the desired display time before 
 fading the messages.

I see this is already included in the plugin:
   option txtFadingMessagesTimeout

However, the plugin always hard-codes this setting to 5 seconds, and
even if you change the value, the next time the document is loaded, it
will always revert to the hard-coded value.   Try this code instead:

if (config.options.txtFadingMessagesTimeout===undefined)
   config.options.txtFadingMessagesTimeout=5;

Also, perhaps a separate checkbox isn't needed: rather, one could just
set the fading timeout == 0 (or blank input) to indicate that no
fading is desired.

 Just a word of caution: As long as TiddlyWiki doesn't have a persistent
 message store*, faded messages are irretrievable.

I can see two additional plugins in this area:

1) a log of previous messages, probably a temporary tiddler
2) some notion of prioratizing a message - ERROR,WARNING,NOTICE, etc,
probably with the data stored in one place against the messages,
similar to lingo, and then syslog type rules for routing messages.

#1 seems doable, but as I'm strongly hinting, #2 is a slippery slope
to reinventing syslog :)

 #1 seems doable,

Try this:
   http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#MessageLogPlugin

Description:
---
By default, messages displayed by TiddlyWiki are not retained once
they are dismissed from the display. This plugin automatically appends
each message to a shadow tiddler, MessageLog, to provide a short-term,
per-session record of messages without altering any 'real' tiddlers in
your document.

You can view the MessageLog tiddler at any time to review the previous
messages and, if you convert the shadow tiddler to a 'real' tiddler
(by editing it), then any subsequent messages will be added to that
real tiddler instead of the shadow. This real tiddler will, of course,
be saved with the rest of your TW document when you save the file,
allowing you to keep a persistent, inter-session log rather than a
short-term, per-session log.

2008-12-21 Thread Eric Shulman

 I'm getting: Error: TypeError: config.extensions is undefined
 from both plugins.

 TW 2.4.1

config.extensions is a NEW object that was only added recently, and
requires TW2.4.2, which just entered the beta 1 pre-release testing
phase this past Friday.

To avoid this error, the CoreVersion slice value in the plugin
should be set to 2.4.2 instead of just 2.4... this will block the
plugin from being loaded in any version prior to 2.4.2

See:
