The image has to already be in your TW -- it doesn't browse your disk as you might expect. You can get an image into your TW by dragging and dropping it. But just a few large images will make your TW non-functional. It's better to use external images. You can also create an external link to a

Another question: according to the tiddlywiki, if I click on the "insert image" icon, I should be able to select a picture and insert it. But it doesn't do anything. The only thing that option does is provide an option to "include system tiddlers" which shows a single flag icon. The "Insert Ima

tiddlysavers doesn't seem to work for me either, giving an error message in the extensions panel, and a wrong version number. When I try to save it says it can't do it because I've given an unusable download directory. It could be that there is some sort of version conflict, or conflict with an

Thanks for the replies. I've given up on trying to use Dropbox. Or even TiddlyDesktop. I can install that and launch it--once. Once I close it, if I try to start it again, nothing happens. Except that nw.exe runs in the background, as many instances as I try to start it again, but does nothing.

Mark, most here understand the frustration. Hang in there, it is worth sticking with. Not long ago, you used to be able to open, edit and save wiki changes via the web browser of your choosing, anywhere, anytime. That's gone through no fault of Tiddlywiki, but by the browser writers. Anyway

Using savetiddlers extension you must create a subdir called tiddlywikilocations in the Download dir. Using linux I can also use folders linked to tiddlywikilocations. I think Mark S once explained that windows users could use junctions. For dropbox I use https://twcloud.github.io/tw5-dropbox/
