Visit the prerelease on the web, explore the release note and try out the new features. Let us know if the release note or documentation is not clear
Use the prerelease upgrader at https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/upgrade.html to make a test upgrade of your own single file wiki and try out your usual workflows. It is suggested that you use a copy of your real life wikis, ie complex wikis that you’ve tweaked and personalised over a long time, so that the new version is tested under tough conditions
Please wait until the official release before updating your day-to-day wikis, and remember the first rule of TiddlyWiki: to make sure to take (and verify) backups before doing anything risky.
Is the transcludes operator also new in v5.3.4? It is documented including an example, but it’s not mentioned on the release page, and its docs do not have any version flair.
A small details that needs documenting: it is not mentioned that the transcludes and backtranscludes operators recognize only “hard” transclusions, similar to links/backlinks operators and hard/soft links.
From my testing so far it looks like these are working:
brace syntax {{HelloThere}}
transclude widget with literal parameter <$transclude $tiddler="HelloThere" />
also works inside another widget, e.g. list, as long as the $tiddler parameter is literal, not variable
This seems very similar the situation with links, so I presume this is not easy to overcome. But if so, it would be nice to document it. I’d be glad to contribute to the documentation if I become some confirmation that my thinking and experiments here are correct.
That’s true, because it share the same code with backlink. And handling soft transclusion will need to render full wiki, which will take a lot of calculation.
Hi @vilc you are correct that v5.3.4 also includes the “transcludes” filter operator, and that it is currently undocumented. As you note, just like with links, these operators only work correctly with static transclusions. Documentation updates would be welcome.
Thank you Jeremy for all your efforts and also many thanks to all contributors.
This revision makes TiddlyWiki more powerful.
We now have a dozen filter operators that allow intermediate users to create a comprehensive node explorer, featuring links, backlinks, tagging, transcludes, and backtranscludes. Now one can easily create the Zettelkasten edition of TiddlyWiki and this makes TW an invaluable tool for the second brain.
The tour plugin and testcase widgets enable the creation of comprehensive wikis for learning and education.
Thanks @CodaCoder I am unable to duplicate that problem with Chrome or Firefox on the Mac. Do you get the same problem with the demos shipped with the Dynannotate plugin?
This is an Azure VM running a test env Firefox (note the automation address bar) – bare bones, minimal install, almost no plugins, clean profile, zero cookies etc.
I can confirm the bug on every browser on Windows 10 I’ve tried: Firefox, Edge, Vivaldi (also chromium based).
It doesn’t occur neither on Firefox in a Linux VM nor on any Android browser I’ve tried: Firefox, Vivaldi.
So it seems to occur on Windows only.
Thank you for correcting the docs. Just note that, transcludes and backtranscludes recognize the below transclusions and backtranscludions. Based on your definition, these hard transclusion/backtransclusion.
The spacing in the tour plugin demo at https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/tour seems to have quite big spacing. The top margin above the instructions seems to be proportional to the window width. On standard 1920x1080 desktop screens the tiddlers in the demo and the “Next” button below them require scrolling in many cases, even though there is more than enough space to fit everything on screen.
The screenshot below is on a 1920x1200 screen:
With the tour: In addition to the disconcerting fact that users are specifically prompted to search for “help,” only to discover that apparently “there is none” (within that tour wiki) , there’s a weird thing at the end of the tour at the moment:
It seems to offer an additional/subsequent tour of the tag feature (after finishing the intro tour), but then that tour is over as soon as it starts.
Just adding two more screenshots to better visualize what @Springer had in mind, but I didn’t get from the screenshots before I took the complete tour myself. The tour indeed asks to explicitly search for “help” and then throws confetti upon not finding any matches
