Hi everybody, somehow I must have missed the notifications for this thread. First of all thanks for your replies. I didn't know TW-Searchwikis before and I think that for searching tiddlers in multiple wikis that's definitely the perfect tool.
As for "links between multiple wikis" I'll try to give a more comprehensive explanation: - the reason why I've splitted "concerns"/domains/contexts in multiple wikis is because of the size: I don't want to have a big bloated wiki, instead I want to have multiple ones - one for the zettelkasten - one for the bibliography - individual ones for several domains like IT security, nutrition, sports etc. - one for collection of bookmarks - etc. - now when I create links e.g. from the *zettelkasten* to the *bibliography* wiki, I also need to specify the location of the wiki as well (like I've described at the beginning of this thread) - imagine after some years you'll have hundreds of links from one wiki to another - let's say the location of one wiki changes (bib.html changes to bibliography.html) - then I'll have to update the links to reflect the new wiki location (bibliography.html) - and that's what I mean by "elegant" - regardless of the method I use to interlink between multiple wikis there should be a way to update multiple links easily - and this solution should also work in 15 years :D - one thing that is not solved yet (at least I haven't found a solution): - let's stick to the *zettelkasten* -> *bibliography* example (you have several tiddlers in *zettelkasten* containing links to tiddlers in *bibliography*) - inserting links in the *zettelkasten* to some tiddlers in the *bibliography* wiki is easy (I still use the macro mentioned before) - but how do I show *backlinks* in the *bibliography* wiki? - more specific: how can I show which tiddlers in the *zettelkasten* wiki point to _this_ specific tiddler in the *bibliography* wiki? I hope my post is not that confusing. I'm looking forward to your comments and suggestions.
