Sorting the Inbox entries in Projectify doesn't work now

#1

I used to be able to sort the Inbox entries in Projectify using drag and drop, but no more. Maybe I changed a setting somewhere, but I have no idea what it could be. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Possibly someone will have a more immediate solution, but have you attempted to look at a blank projectify to confirm that the behavior works as you expect, and then compare the settings between the two? Also would recommend comparing any shadow tiddlers you may have modified recently

I checked the demo Projectify and it works as expected. Also I went back to a recent backup and that one works too. I’ll have to find a way to start from that backup and redo all the work done since then. :unamused:

Please consider that you have other options. For example, starting from the backup, you can import all the changes you’ve made subsequently. Or, even better, just drag files from the backup into your most recent iteration until you’ve identified the change you made that affected this behavior.

If it’s a setting you’ve changed, for example, you could just import the backed up settings tiddlers.

I don’t know if you’ve edited many of the original projectify tiddlers, but if you haven’t altered the core shadow tiddlers at all, you could even import the originals into your most recent version to reset things.

Besides being easier, it’s also an opportunity to identify what went wrong so you can learn something either to avoid it in the future or to better understand your project

Thank you for your suggestions. I used Perplexity.ai to get two lists. One for the recently created tiddlers and another one for the recently modified ones.
Recently created:

<$list filter="[!is[system]!prefix[$:]sort[created]reverse[]limit[25]]">
<li>
<$link to={{!!title}}>{{!!title}}</$link> - {{!!created}}
</li>
</$list>

Recently modified

<$list filter="[!is[system]!prefix[$:]sort[modified]reverse[]limit[25]]">
<li>
<$link to={{!!title}}>{{!!title}}</$link> - {{!!modified}}
</li>
</$list>

This gave me a good start in recovering. I exported a few of the tiddlers from the faulty TiddlyWiki that had a lot of text in them and I imported them to the backup TiddlyWiki.

I had tried importing the original Projectify tiddlers, but I couldn’t actually make the Import task to work. Instead of the tiddlers an Untitled tiddler was imported.

Thankfully having frequent backups may have saved me from a lot of distress. I still have to review the TiddlyWiki that I have resurrected and I hope that everything will be fine.

As is so often the case :slightly_smiling_face:
