Pin Tiddler To First Place On StoryRiver

I have written a few simple plugins, now pondering idea of being able to temporarily pin one or more tiddlers to top of story river and thinking about best strategy.

One thought is whether there is a place in the code before the story river list is rendered where another short list or even single tiddler could be pre-pended to the final list to be rendered.

Intended Use - Research based TW.

I am often in the position where my focus is on one tiddler and have closed all others, I may then wish to use search or tags to identify other tiddlers that have some conceptual link with the current tiddler of interest with the aim of enhancing, cross-linking, updating or extending the tiddler of interest so I want to display these other tiddlers directly beneath on the story line but of course populating the story river with these other tiddlers removes the one of interest.

I imagine it might be easier have a scheme that allows you to pin only one tiddler at a time, pinning a new tiddler undoes the ‘pin’ on any previously pinned tiddler.

So just looking for an ideal place in the code execution to pre-pend the story river list with the pinned tiddler?

Just drag-and-drop this single tiddler into your TiddlyWiki

  • adds pin/unpin button to tiddler view toolbar
  • creates an alternative story list to be displayed above the standard story
  • can pin multiple tiddlers

enjoy,
