Saving a snapshot of a node.js tw with the sidebar defaulting to open

#1

Hi, I have tried a couple ways of doing what seems like it should be simple and all have failed so far:
what I want to do:

  • saving a snapshot of a node.js tw with the sidebar defaulting to open
    expected behavior:
  • open tiddlers I want to be open (tiddler river is the default page) in my node.js TW5 with sidebar open. Save snapshot, open snapshot, page I saved on is oipen as is sidebar
    Actual Result:
  • sidebar is closed
    What I have tried:
  • Quick tip: Always open ‘Open’ sidebar tab on startup. no love.

Anyone know what I need to do?

Edit the $:/config/SyncFilter shadow tiddler. By default it contains:

[is[tiddler]] -[[$:/core]] -[[$:/library/sjcl.js]] -[prefix[$:/boot/]] -[prefix[$:/HistoryList]]
-[status[pending]plugin-type[import]] -[[$:/isEncrypted]] -[prefix[$:/status/]]
-[prefix[$:/state/]] -[prefix[$:/temp/]]

Add [[$:/state/sidebar]] to the end of this list.

Note: You will need to toggle the sidebar (i.e., hide then show) to initially create the $:/state/sidebar tiddler. Once it exists and you’ve made the change to $:/config/SyncFilter, it’s state should persist across browser sessions.
