Parent, child, sibling notes plugin?

#1

I was wondering if anyone knows of a plugin that would create buttons on the view toolbar to create

  • a parent note
  • a child note
  • a sibling note

Or maybe someone can tell me how to create these buttons myself?

Do you mean like the “New Here” button…

That creates a new tiddler that is tagged with the title of the current tiddler (aka a child note)

:slight_smile:

This requirement of yours needs more a solution that shows how to make the buttons, rather than something you may get from a plugin. Although you may find such things in a geneology solution.

Keep in mind if you use the normal method;

  • New hear tags the child with current tiddler
  • for a parent you need to tag the parent with the current tiddler
  • for a sibling you need to tag it with the same parent, so you need to know the pqarent first.

Perhaps you can simplify this by using marios TOCP plugin. One reason to do this is the tags can be used for many other reasons, so how do you seperate other tags from the ones used for the Parent, Child, Siblings tags (perhaps give such tiddlers a field object-type=person. Although if you only want to use a TOC macro like the contents this may not be an issue.

Thanks, Tones. Wasn’t sure if I was misunderstanding some aspect that already existed. I appreciate your response :slightly_smiling_face: And yours too, Christian. I had not scrolled up :wink:
