Can you repeat the steps that lose edits? If you're able to use your browser developer tools network console you will see that TW5 uses a timeout so that it takes a second from clicking 'done' until the change ripples all the way back to the server. So I would try to avoid refreshing the page until you can see your last change appear in the Node.js console. > > Two other questions: > > 1) Is there a straightforward way to migrate content back and forth > between a single-file instance, and a node.js instance? > Yes. On the TW command line you can use the load command to load the tiddlers from a single file wiki, and the rendertiddler command to generate a single file wiki from a wiki folder. tiddlywiki --load path/to/my/wiki.html --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all path/to/my/new/wiki.html text/plain Can you explain the workflow you're after a little more? > 2) Most browsers on OS X like to append a "(#)" suffix to the file name > when saving the single-file-instance of tiddly wiki.

As noted on tiddlywiki.com, there are two workarounds: * Use TiddlyFox on Firefox if you can * Set your browser to prompt you for the file location on each download. That enables you to manually select your existing file to overwrite it Best wishes Jeremy > > cheers, > --bill > > > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "TiddlyWiki" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/tiddlywiki. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. > -- Jeremy Ruston mailto:[email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
