Hi Matias I've been through several of your suggestions - and now I use four different methods. 1) UploadTiddlerPlugin by Bidix http://tiddlywiki.bidix.info/#UploadTiddlerPlugin in a TW which makes extensive use of checkboxes and quick upload of individual tiddlers -ø thereby minimizing the risk of overwrites... (sickleavelists etc..) Example: http://maans.bplaced.net/hu
2) Your last suggestion is the one I use for some of my students individual TWs. They fill out forms in a local copy and give it back to me. I upload the result to individual TiddlySpotsites with a password and integrate their TW's in a MainTW with iframes. They simply click a sliderbutton (with their name as label) and edits the TW online. Some students go directly to their own TW and make edits there - but most students remember the address of the MainTW and use it as a portal to edit their own TW.. Example: http://tinyurl.com/yjq5moj 3) I use LoadTiddlersPlugin http://www.tiddlytools.com/#LoadTiddlersPlugin in a TW which acts as a server for copies used by my collegues. Only tiddlers with certain tags are loaded - to avoid conflicts with individual preferences - and I'm carefull with tiddlerTitles.. Example - (to many data of confidential nature - sorry) 4) I've tried to setup TiddlyChatter http://tiddlychatter.tiddlyspot.com/index.html in another TW which I use as a blog - in the hope that it could provide easy cooperation - but the setup ended up beeing too "hairy" and I had to give up... Example: http://edb.tiddlyspot.com/#TiddlyChatter Regards Måns Mårtensson On 11 Nov., 03:40, Amzg <matiasg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Has any decent/practical solution come up for collaborating with > multiple TWs? > > I'd guess a generally desired setup would be; > - one "central and general TW", possibly local, connected to; > - multiple specialized TWs perhaps online (e.g on tiddlyspot) to > invite other topic-interested users. > > Clearly it'd be desirable to be able to both read and write on those > remote TWs **via the central one** - and so without storing copies of > individual tiddlers in the central one (other than perhaps > temporarily) and also without having to pre-specify which individual > tiddlers that are to be edited. > > Has any best practice evolved for this? > > After some digging I have identified the following tools touching > parts of the issue, but it seems none quite does it - or do I > misunderstand something? > > From TiddyTools; > ImportTiddlersPlugin - copies new/updated tiddlers from an external TW > ExternalTiddlersPlugin - (similar to previous but also importing non- > TW files into tiddlers) > LoadTiddlersPlugin - (very similar to previous?
