I recently started using tiddlywiki-app. Its documentation mentions support for Sub-Wiki, which sounds interesting and potentially useful.
I have several older wiki folders that I’d like to reorganize, so I’m trying to understand how this feature works.
What exactly is a Sub-Wiki?
I checked the official documentation and also searched this Discourse forum, but I couldn’t find a clear explanation.
Could someone provide a brief description or point me to the right resource?
Or general suggestions regarding managing several wiki folders separately and jointly?
I remember that the subwiki concept first appeared in TidGi-Desktop. It was designed to add a private folder for users. Even if the HTML is exported, the content in the private folder will not appear in it.
The usage is to add a private tag to a tiddler(in tiddlywiki-app)
If you use tiddlywiki on top of the node server it is possible to generate additional wikis under the same node instance. The previously published Bob Wiki allowed you to create “sub wikis” from the master wiki and navigate to them from a list. Perhaps this is what was meant on tiddlywiki-app, but the term “sub wiki” is free and open to be defined by the reader/writer.
Arguably the following could also be sub wikis
Wikis generated using the inner wiki plugin
Wikis accessed through an iframe
Wikis with a subset of plugins and tiddlers from which you import content to be included in master or parent wiki
It don’t start a wiki itself, so it is a sub-wiki. Its main-wiki start the wiki server and load tiddler from both main-wiki and all sub-wikis.
It can be used to contains some private tiddlers, when you publish you main-wiki to internet, and you want some privacy, so you can add Private tag, to move some tiddlers to a private sub-wiki that is not publish to Github public repository.
