Hello
Is it possible to transclude the content of a tiddler that is another wiki?
If so, what is the syntax?
Cheers, Rob

That’s not possible at the moment with single file wikis.
The Mulit-Wiki-Server plugin (which is “alpha” atm) will give us the possibility to define “bags”. A bag is a container, which can be part of several “recipes”. A recipe basically defines the content of a wiki.
Do you know if it is likely to be possible in the future? It would be really useful for those of us who use several single file wikis.
I think it is not very likely. But using the tm-open-external-window should be a good workaround, which you can use out of the box atm. You can use standard permalinks (also with permaviews), which directly opens the “needed” tiddler(s) in a new window. So you can show content in a full context, which imo would be an advantage.
It’s not the same as transcluding but you might want to consider the load-external-tiddlers solution — developed by @saqimtiaz — and also modeled here at my demo site.
It effectively imports tiddlers from another wiki, but doesn’t save them (so that the remote wiki remains the “authoritative” source of the tiddlers in questions, and you don’t end up with proliferated copies to troubleshoot).
Thanks for mentioning it. I did forget about that one. – So – Note to self – Never say never if you talk about TiddlyWiki.
