You create a tiddler either by clicking the {{$:/core/images/new-button}} button in the sidebar, or by clicking on a link to a missing tiddler (links to missing tiddlers will appear in [[blue italic text]]).
You can edit an existing tiddler by clicking the {{$:/core/images/edit-button}} button at the top right of the tiddler.
!The ~EditTemplate
Creating new tiddlers and editing existing tiddlers both open up the ~EditTemplate. This is your control panel for modifying the tiddler in different ways. The ~EditTemplate has several areas:
*''The title editor'' Use this to edit the title of the tiddler
*''The tag editor'' Use this to add or remove tags to the tiddler. Type a tag name and either select a tag from the dropdown list or finish typing to create a new tag. Then click the 'add' button to add it to the tiddler. Delete tags from a tiddler by clicking the 'x' on the tag label.
*''The text editor'' Use this to add content to the tiddler. You can also use the preview button to preview changes to the tiddler text.
*''The type editor'' Use this when you have a specific type of content that needs to be displayed in a different way, such as an image. See ContentType for a list of possible content types. The default is text/vnd.tiddlywiki)
*''The field editor'' Use this to add fields to the tiddler. For example, you can use a [[list field|ListField]] to display the order of tiddlers tagged with the current tiddler's title in ways that are not alphabetical.
!Save, cancel or delete
When you are finished editing, select the desired button at the top of the ~EditTemplate:
*The 'done' button ({{$:/core/images/done-button}}) saves your changes and returns to view mode.
*The 'cancel' button ({{$:/core/images/cancel-button}}) cancels the changes and returns to view mode.
*The 'delete' button ({{$:/core/images/delete-button}}) deletes the entire tiddler.
