Hello again, If I were setting up to do what I think you're looking for, I would use Code Pattern: Missing Tiddlers Manager <https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/8-BL-2wNXbw> as my starting point, likely placing the manager in the sidebar.
If had had a variety of default content for different kinds of tiddlers, I think I'd have a series of buttons for each missing tiddler, one "create this tiddler with these defaults" button for each type of tiddler I'd want to create, for every missing tiddler. Something like that. On Saturday, May 1, 2021 at 11:23:13 AM UTC-3 Charlie Veniot wrote: > BTW, apologies, I posted before seeing PMario's post.
