If there is a SavingMechanism available that supports it, TiddlyWiki will automatically trigger a save of the current document on clicking <<.icon $:/core/images/done-button>> ''ok'' or <<.icon $:/core/images/delete-button>> ''delete'' when editing a tiddler.

You should see a yellow notification at the top right of the window to confirm that an automatic save has taken place.

Automatic saving can be enabled or disabled through the ''Settings'' tab of the [[control panel|$:/ControlPanel]] <<.icon $:/core/images/options-button>>. Behind the scenes, it is controlled through the configuration tiddler [[$:/config/AutoSave]], which must have the value ''yes'' to enable automatic saving.
Add automatic saving and warning on exit with unsaved changes We re-use some of the existing syncer mechanism. It was already keeping track of changes to tiddlers in the store when working with a tiddler syncadaptor. Now it also tracks changes when there is no syncadaptor, allowing us to provide a warning if there are unsaved changes. 2014-02-06 21:36:30 +00:00			`created: 20140206211715540`

Docs: Update AutoSave.tid replace dead link to "SaverModule" with SavingMechanism (#8303) AutoSave tiddler's first sentence currently points to SaverModule, which is a missing tiddler. SavingMechanism seems to be the retitled tiddler that wasn't relinked. (Perhaps more changes are warranted, but this minimal change avoids the embarrassment of a dead link at a place newbies might actually be depending on info.) 2024-06-29 08:25:52 -04:00			`If there is a SavingMechanism available that supports it, TiddlyWiki will automatically trigger a save of the current document on clicking <<.icon $:/core/images/done-button>> ''ok'' or <<.icon $:/core/images/delete-button>> ''delete'' when editing a tiddler.`
