Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

thanks Mat, I got the clickable bit sorted. In one of the screenshots I attached in a reply to Birthe, edu2.png, you can see in the References section 2 links to the same Tiddler (Eexceptional vs non-thinking person). The 1st of the 2 shown as a collapsible transclsuion is what I want, in fact

Mat, the Viewtemplate that I pulled up is from within my own TW file. Miraculously, it had your code, I think. How is that possible? How can I get that link clickable next to the Book box? -- Securely sent with Tutanota. Get your own encrypted, ad-free mailbox: https://tutanota.com 13 Apr 2

Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

Peter, yes, the viewtemplate is desgined to show the table. About viewtemplates: A tiddler is really a listing of multiple viewtemplates. A viewtemplate is anything with the tag "$:/tags/ViewTemplate". There is e.g a viewtemplate for the title+buttons, another for the tags, another for the mai

Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

Yes, that works. In the screenshot below you see a filled in tiddler. In the 2nd screenshot you see the same tiddler in Read mode with the table. But in the box at "Book" there is a link code, which refers to the tiddler with the book name as title. Ideally that should be a clickable link. How

Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

Peter, The ViewTemplate will show the table in every tiddler having the tag passage. Create a tiddler tagged passage and create the relevant fields and you will have the table. If this is what you want, you do not need to do anything with the ViewTemplate. In you original question I think you

You need the ViewTemplate. Author, Source, Book, Remarks are trancluded from fields in the current tiddler. Birthe mandag den 13. april 2020 kl. 09.31.44 UTC+2 skrev Peter Buyze: > > Mat, would you be willing to tell me how that nice table on the Read mode > of the tiddler is done? > See screen

Mat, would you be willing to tell me how that nice table on the Read mode of the tiddler is done? See screenshot. 12 Apr 2020, 12:26 by matiasg...@gmail.com: > Peter Buyze wrote: > >> I created a new tiddler and copy/pasted the code into the text box, but >> nothing is shown in the read mode.

Yeah, that is the SideEditor plugin. BTW, you can see all installed plugins via the Controlpanel, i.e by clicking on the cog wheel in the sidebar, and tab Plugins. Note that not every "extra feature" is packaged into plugins tho. Also note that the SideEditor

Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

OK, my apologies. I do thank you for your help. Last question, if I may: in the top right hand corner of your BookList tiddler there is a double arrow to the right, which gives a preview of the edit mode of the tiddler. Would you mind telling me which plug-in you use for that? 12 Apr 2020, 12:

Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

Why not a tiddler for each book and each author and tag books with authors. Or authors with books? No author field is required be cause the title is the author. Tag books with book and authors with author. Personaly I use a field called object-type for my tiddlers and would give it a value of

Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

Peter Yes, you can type in a new fieldname and add it. Field names have naming rules but single or hyphenated words are fine. Perhaps you can decide if a tiddler has the author field then its a book and leave the tags for your relationships. I can share a bundle of example tiddlers if you want

Re: [tw5] Book listing tiddler

Tony, I just sent a reply to Mat, not having seen your reply, so I apologise. OK, I understand it is better to create a new field. So please tell me exactly how to do that. At the bottom of a tiddler there is a box called "field name": if I click on that there is a drop-down list to choose from

[tw5] Book listing tiddler

Peter I support mats suggestions but I read that you are not using fields just text entry. Use tags or actual fields to organise your information and all tiddlywikis features become yours to use. What you ask is possible as is almost anything, but unadvisable. Once you move these to fields you

I have a basic template with in the text area: Author: Source: Remarks: Above Author there is a horizontal line, above which I add info. Each time I want to create a new tiddler I clone this empty one. When the info I add is from a book I add the tag book to the tiddler. I also have a tiddler
