title: SystemTiddlers
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
Tiddlers are classified as system tiddlers if their title starts with the special string `$:/`. The only difference from ordinary tiddlers is that they are hidden from most searches and lists in the sidebar. (In particular, system tiddlers are shown in the "More/System" list).

System tiddlers provide a simple way to hide the internal components of TiddlyWiki so that they don't clutter things up, getting in the way of the users content.
2018-01-13 15:39:44 +00:00
Many of the system tiddlers follow the convention of using further slashes to delineate the components of the title. For example: `$:/config/BitmapEditor/LineWidth`.

You don't need to create your own system tiddlers, but it can be useful when customising TiddlyWiki. For example, if you create a custom palette you might call it `$:/_MyPalette` so that (a) it is hidden from searches/lists and (b) it will appear at the top of the system tiddler list for easy reference.
