Defaut tiddler not showing up at start up

#1

Hello,

I have a tiddler called “Home” that I’m trying to have displayed when opening my TW, but it’s is not working.

Is there something I’m doing wrong?

Here’s what my settings look like:

That’s strange. How does your URL look like? – If it ends like so /#: this is a permalink with no tiddler selected.

Just a guess

Good call! My URL was not right: https://XXX.tiddlyhost.com/#%24%3A%2FNew%20Tiddler%201
instead of https://XXX.tiddlyhost.com/

Thanks!

I know this is not included in your question, but everytime someone asks about setting default tiddlers when they open Tiddlywiki, I always want to remind them that in addition to setting the default tiddler, you can also create the tiddler $:/config/EmptyStoryMessage with the following contents so that your default tiddler automatically displays everytime you close all other tiddlers or the story is otherwise empty.

{{My Tiddler Name||$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate}}

in your case:

{{Home||$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate}}
