Hi All I am working on a study project for which I need to record the hours that I work. I am trying to store these "timesheet" records in my wiki . I have set up a template tiddler containing a form with three fields: Date, Hours, and Topic. I wish to have a macro button that enables me to create new timesheet records. I have tried three ways of doing this. I have added Udo's plugin, http://tiddlywiki.abego-software.de/#FormTiddlerPlugin, and used <<newTiddler>> with <<formTiddler>>, and used <<newTiddlerWithForm>>. I have also tried http://zaptest.tiddlyspot.com/#NewSavedTiddlerPlugin and the <<newSavedTiddler>> macro.
<<newTiddler title:{{"Time_test_"+(new Date()).formatString ("YYYY0MM0DD_hh0mm0ss")}} label:"New timesheet record button" text:{{"<<formTiddler TimesheetRecordTemplate\>\>"}} tag:"timesheettest">> <<newTiddlerWithForm TimesheetRecordTemplate "newtiddlerwithform button" [["Time_test_"+(new Date()).formatString("YYYY0MM0DD_hh0mm0ss")]]>> <<newSavedTiddler text:{{"<<formTiddler [[TimesheetRecordTemplate]]>" + ">"}} tag:"timesheettest" label:'newSavedTiddler button'>> Of these three methods, the newTiddler method lets me easily specify default content by adding a "<data> </data>" statement to the text, but opens the tiddler in edit mode when I would much rather it be in view mode. The newTiddlerWithForm method lets me specify default content and opens the new tiddler in view mode, but doesn't let me automatically add tags to the new tiddler. The newSavedTiddler opens in view mode and lets me specify default content, but does not let me automatically create a title for the tiddler (instead you need to type in the new title at a prompt). What I would like to be able to do is to modify newTiddlerWithForm so that this macro accepts a "tags:" parameter. Is it possible to do this? If so, how would I start doing this? Or, is there another way to achieve what I want to do? I have found these two threads: 'coding to auto-tag a tiddler created by FormTiddlerPlugin?' http://groups.google.co.nz/group/TiddlyWiki/browse_thread/thread/7212cac6b63270ca/ced547906b9cca21?hl=en 'Automatically adding tags when using NewTiddlerWithForm' http://groups.google.co.nz/group/TiddlyWiki/browse_thread/thread/c642fe8e6eb9e6f9/6f0fc14879e089d3?hl=en Cheers Andrew Mc --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
