Not specifically a TW topic but this group seem populated with intelligent people with wide experience. I am reviewing the use of TW for my Central Street Archive TW app ( Central Street Archive ). My proposed solution, of a tiddler per document populated with tags for each named person, place, organ…

I have found the Google Search Console as a way of limiting searches to my web site and am trying that to see if it works for me. If so, then I assume I’ll just have to add a front end to implement Google searches.

If you want to search your wiki in Google, you can try Search your nodejs wiki in Google if you use nodejs based wiki Use the Site Search Operator if it is indexed by google

In addition to lineonetwo’s comments. Google has in the past provided a way to embed a search limited to your own site; You may need to use the $:/tags/RawMarkupWikified/TopBody to define a script, then use a div to display the search box. I will see if I can share an example tomorrow.

Scott, thanks for your thoughts. I have been programming for over 40 years but the problem is that I need to read each document to extract proper nouns. They are not i any other format. This takes time and time and time and I am hoping that I can short circuit things by providing searchable PDF’s. …

Scott, could you expand on your notion of developing .tid files as this sounds intriguing. I assume once we have a tid file we can merely import it into a TW and it would create the tiddler structure, tags and all. Would this also update an existing tiddler so that if the skeleton was already in t…

It’s about bedtime for me, and I’ll try to write more tomorrow, but very briefly, .tid files are how a wiki is stored when running on Node. You’re right that they can easily be imported into any wiki, but in Node, these files are the tiddlers. For instance, this tiddler: https://tiddlywiki.com/#Dr…

Scott, Thank you for the explanation. I will have to think about how I might utilise this approach. Bobj

I have been pondering more and more about understanding how a user, using for example, google search, find my TW and then accesses the appropriate tiddler. I am not a node-js user an so am unsure of the technical details. However, as I understand it. If I run a TW as a single file TW, then google …
