Try setting the type of the tiddler to "text/csv”. Does you CSV file have a
‘.csv’ extension?
Best wishes

Currently TW5 does not seem to import CSVs as indicated in this thread:

When I import a csv I just get a text/plain tiddler.
Is the parser part of the core?

It's not for the faint of heart; you'll need to hack the source code to
customise it for your own CSV files.

I'd be interested in playing around with the Node.js script. Sounds useful!

Thanks, Jermey. I'm not quite to node.js yet. I installed but don't really
get it. I don't do much at command line.
As for CSV, the tool I'm trying to use

Hi Steve
Funnily enough, I've been working with some CSV files in my dayjob. I've
got a very noddy little Node.js script that converts CSV files into JSON
files. It's not very polished - eg one has to edit the JS source to tell it
which columns to use.
But, if you're comfortable with Node.js it m
Reviving an old thread. Am again interested in importing CSV as separate

I use google sheets to generate CSV.

Hi Steve
You'll probably have seen the current built-in support for CSV files in
TW5: dragging or importing a file results in a single tiddler containing
the entire CSV file. There's a special parser for text/csv tiddlers so that
the content gets displayed as a nicely formatted HTML table.
The ap
Of course, writing out the problems leads to its solution (at least
partially).
I've discovered that, as promised above, a properly formatted json file, as:

{"title":"Tiddler1","text":"This is the text of tiddler 1","tags":"Tag1
Tag2 [[Tag 3]]"},
{"title":"Tiddler2","text":"This is th

My workflow has been to import csv file to TWc via Eric's
CreateTiddlersFromCsv and then drop the TWc on a TW5 to import all tiddlers

The tedious part is then to click/accept to convert every imported tiddler

Resurrecting an old thread, yet again...I have the same challenge (a

prevent the tiddlers being mistaken for TW classic format).

Hi Arkady
The "browse" button in TiddlyWiki5 should let you select multiple files -
what browser are you using?
The easiest way to import a bunch of tiddlers at once is to use a .json
file containing an array of tiddler field objects. For example:
[
{"title":"Tiddler1","text":"Text of tiddler},
Found a workaround. Copied all tiddlers in "editions/mytw5/tiddlers"
directory, copied tiddlywiki.info from editions/tw5.com and ran bld.sh
after adding to it a section to create "mytw5.html" file. Whew... Learned
something in the process. But still, would like to see an easier way.

I did crate a Perl script and generated 322 .tid files - one for each
tiddler. But, to my disappointment, I cannot select multiple files from
the file selection interface.
