Alfonso, Aha, the empty one does loads, so that's progress.... There's something about *some* of my particular tw5 files (I've tried a few, with mixed results) that droppages doesn't like... perhaps a plugin?
Meanwhile, I still haven't found a good plain-old SAVE solution for working with TW files on my desktop (that doesn't initiate a download with every save, which is a firm no-go), so DropPages is still only half of a solution even for the files that it does serve up properly... Here's a summary of the research-setup-troubleshoot work I've done since tiddlyspot went down: * TW5-dropbox: a fairly seamless EDIT-from-browser-anywhere solution (for files residing on dropbox), but without publishing. * TiddlyDrive: a fairly seamless EDIT-from-browser-anywhere solution (for files residing on google drive), but without publishing. * DropPages: a (partial) PUBLISH solution (for files residing in my dropbox, but somehow fails to render some tw5 files), but without seamless edits (and fixated on a Dropbox/Apps folder path distinct from tw5-dropbox's fixed Apps file path; otherwise they might be made to play together?) * GitHub Saver: GitHub can PUBLISH and newer tw5 versions *should* save edits there, but in practice GitHub flashes me a 401 every time. * Node.js via terminal: a powerful local-machine EDIT option saves nicely (even to dropbox directory), but which does not yet publish (beyond local-network-while-computer-is-on). * Noteself: seems to save elegantly, but does a poor job of clarifying where the data lives. (I have lost noteself projects more than once.) Also doesn't publish to web. So I'm still missing (in the wake of tiddlyspot) a single solution for seamless EDIT-HOST workflow. -Springer On Tuesday, November 17, 2020 at 5:22:21 PM UTC-5 Alfonso Arciniega wrote: > You may want to try adding an empty TW file to the site, and also use a > https:// notation instead of http:// in the link, and see if there's any > difference. > Remember that your TW files need to be in the "C:\.. > ..\Dropbox\Apps\My.DropPages\espringer.droppages.com\Public" folder and > nowhere else. > > Cheers, > > Alfonso > > On Sunday, November 15, 2020 at 5:43:41 PM UTC-7 springer wrote: > >> Alfonso, >> >> I just tried to set up Droppages, and even an hour after setting it up, I >> get this odd result: >> >> When I try to load my TW5 html file via the URL (when the file is indeed >> in my dropbox under the appropriate folder), the browser's content area >> stays blank, BUT the browser (and I've tried all three on my mac) is >> clearly *trying* to load the right page, because the site header info is >> properly displaying, based on what's in my TW5. >> >> Here's the url: http://espringer.droppages.com/index.html >> >> Any clues? >> >> On Sunday, November 8, 2020 at 8:24:59 PM UTC-5 Alfonso Arciniega wrote: >> >>> Below is shown an option with Dropbox and DropPages.
