I’m fixing this now to show how the tabs macro can be changed to
accommodate the change, but we may yet decide to reverse out the change
in order to maintain backwards compatibility.
One problem with changes like this is that there’s no easy way to find
out where it impacts the core UI. The tabs macro is now fixed, but
perhaps there’s more obscure things that are still broken in the core.
If we do opt to reverse the change to preserve backwards compatibility,
we could add a way to explicitly trigger the new behaviour. For
example, a new attribute `updateState=“yes”`.
Yet another alternative is to make completely new alternative to the
list widget with revised semantics, that authors can opt-in to. For
example `<$loop>`. (There was another issue we discussed a year or two
ago about adding support for an index variable which may be a candidate
for fixing at the same time).
* Refactored control panel “Plugins” tab to make the elements more
reusable
* Refactored the display of plugin tiddlers to use the same format as
the control panel (as suggested, I think by @danielo515), adding the
shadow tiddler listing as an overridable extension tab
* Added a new tab in the “More” sidebar providing quick access to all
installed plugins
There have been long standing problems with the buttons not working in
Firefox, and now a [further
problem](https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/GlsruQyPOag/BAhnI2mt
BgAJ) has come to light, and been similarly hard to resolve.
On balance, I’ve decided to remove the undo/redo buttons from the
toolbar (the ctrl/cmd-Z shortcut is still operational), thus avoiding
the problems, and saving some space in the core.
Fixed a side-effect of 03519c14b0 from
@matabele whereby the current tiddler is overwritten by the
`<$tiddler>` widget, which means that it is not accessible when
rendering the caption of the tab.
This causes a problem with eg the “Add Plugins” modal where it breaks
the count on the tabs.
There’s not much to making the toolbar button styles switchable: the
change to the PageTemplate introduces a new configuration tiddler that
controls the button styling. Most of this commit is the user interface
for changing that setting, including the translatable text. I think
this again demonstrates that we need to be very selective about which
configuration options have a UI included in the core. Otherwise, a few
dozen more of these settings will start to become a significant
fraction of the core.
Otherwise, the `sameday` macro will default to `modified`. In case the user set `dateField:"created"` when calling `timeline`, the result will be inconsitent.
Fixes#1450
Provides support for an integrated plugin library that can be used to
install plugins from tiddlywiki.com directly to wikis hosted online or
offline. See the Plugins tab of Control Panel.
Todo:
* Error checking(eg libraryserver.js HTTP GET)
* Translatability
* Documentation
** $:/tags/ServerConnection
** savelibrarytiddlers command
For consistency with the way that tabs work.
To see this in action, on tiddlywiki.com open the tiddler
`$:/tags/ControlPanel` and edit it to add the tag “TableOfContents”.
You’ll see the control panel appear at the bottom of the table of
contents.
New export button appears as a page control toolbar button, a tiddler
toolbar button, and a button in the advanced search filter tab.
Initially supports exporting as static HTML, CSV, JSON or `.tid` file.
Still to do:
* Made the exporter descriptions translatable
* Hide the export button by default
* User docs
* Cleaning up the existing templates (eg,
`$:/core/templates/alltiddlers.template.html` should work by
transcluding `$:/core/templates/exporters/Static`)
* Docs for the new macros `exportButton`, `csvtiddlers` and
`jsontiddlers`
Issues:
* OS X Numbers refuses to open CSV files that have been generated in
Chrome, because it thinks they’ve been downloaded from the Internet.
Firefox works OK
* The export button won’t work within the tiddler info panel, or from
the *more* popup (this is because we don’t support nested popups)
In practice the macros are always invoked in inline mode, meaning that
the triple braces weren’t getting parsed correctly. Now we switch to
inline code
The “info”, “edit”, “close” troika has been a feature of TW5 since the
very early days. Recent discussion in Hangout #67 has made me question
whether we wouldn’t be better off with the defaults in this commit:
“more”, “edit”, “close”.
The rationale is that the primary purpose of the “info” button has
become gaining access to the tools that haven’t been elevated to being
toolbar buttons. Most of the rest of the content of the info panel is
pretty arcane. So let’s try it for a few days - I’d appreciate any
feedback.
