@saq quick question: am trying to package my addon, am a bit of a newbie unfortunately. is it possible we need to modify this line (bold insert) <$list filter="[*all[shadows+tiddlers]*tag[$:/tags/streams/root-buttons]]" variable="btnTiddler">
in $:/plugins/sq/streams/nodes-list-template ? otherwise, it feels like my new button does not take when it is contained within a plugin....even with the $:/tags/streams/root-buttons tag.... thanks much...
