[tw5] Re: Using kin filter with multiple tags
Alrighty then. After a bit of trial and error and realizing that there were other considerations when a tiddler has a succession of two tags, but then those two tags have a common single tag and also having to make sure that I didn't break the normal case where only one tag was involved (whew!), I came up with the code below. It does work for all cases that I've come across so far in my TW. I know that it only handles the case when there is a single tag or two tags, but not more than two. It was definitely a learning experience. Now the trick will be to remember those lessons learned. I would appreciate any feedback if anyone sees a simpler or more generic way of doing it or there is something fundamentally wrong with the way I did it. <$list filter="[title tags[]tag[Railroads]count[]compare:number:eq[1]then]"> Successors to ''<>'': <$list filter="[title kin:tags:from[]!is[system]!title[Railroads]!title]"> -> <$link><$view field="title"/> <$list filter="[title tags[]tag[Railroads]count[]compare:number:gt[1]then]"> Successors to ''<>'': <$list filter="[titletags[]tag[Railroads]first[]]" variable=firsttag> <$list filter="[titletags[]tag[Railroads]last[]]" variable=secondtag> <$list filter="[title kin:tags:from[]!is[system]!title[Railroads]!title]"> -> <$link><$view field="title"/> <$list filter="[title kin:tags:from[]!is[system]!title[Railroads]!title]"> -> <$link><$view field="title"/> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

[tw5] Re: Using kin filter with multiple tags
After a bit of trial and error, I was able to modify the code as follows; Successors to ''<>'': <$list filter="[titletags[]tag[Railroads]first[]]" variable=firsttag> <$list filter="[titlekin:tags:from[]!kin!title ]"> -> <$link><$view field="title"/> <$list filter="[titletags[]tag[Railroads]last[]]" variable=secondtag> <$list filter="[titlekin:tags:from[]!kin !title]"> -> <$link><$view field="title"/> The above works just how I wanted. Since my current case never has more than two tags, first and last will suffice. If there's ever a case where there will be more than two, then I'll have to readdress that. If anyone sees a simpler way of doing it, I would be more than happy to hear what that would be. I'm sure that there is a better way to do it given that I'm pretty much a noob at this.

[tw5] Re: Using kin filter with multiple tags
Damon, It is the standard TOC that tends to work the other way, dividing into branches, leaves etc... Can you ask the Question the other way around? If you can write an independant filter you can actually subtract one from the other such as a filter than runs out all branches, then remove the tiddler in the main line (not railways) the original kin filter exposed, what will be left is the line of tiddlers that were not in the first filter, or you can add them together. I know this is but a hint, not a solution but the test data is not available. If you could demonstrate it on say a copy of tiddlywiki.com?
