Javascript plugin to set the current window name

Developers
11

I have returned to work on this since I now have the wiki auto-detecting the current window.name if available and updating the $:/info/startup-window-name or to “unnamed” if not available.

The difficulty I have is making a working action tiddler widget. action-setwindowname.json (1.8 KB)

<$button >
<$action-setwindowname $name="New name"/>
New name
</$button>

when the button is clicked I get

Internal JavaScript Error

Well, this is embarrassing. It is recommended that you restart TiddlyWiki by refreshing your browser

ReferenceError: windowName is not defined

Once I have the action widget working;

  • I will save a custom window name in $:/config/window.name
  • Create a startup action to see if the window.name in $:/info/startup-window-name matches $:/config/window.name
    • if not set the window name to the value in $:/config/window.name
    • Provide an optional prompt before changing the window name.

Any developer support appreciated.
