! Introduction
|
|
|
|
[[Plugins]] are bundles of tiddlers that are distributed and managed as a single unit. Users can install them with drag and drop, or using the [[plugin library|Installing a plugin from the plugin library]].
|
|
|
|
<<.from-version "5.1.22">> Plugins that contain JavaScript modules require a reload of the wiki before they will work. Plugins that do not contain JavaScript modules are automatically dynamically loaded and unloaded.
|
|
|
|
Plugins can be used to package any tiddler content, including JavaScript [[modules|Modules]] that extend and enhance the core TiddlyWiki5 functionality. The tiddlers within registered plugins are ShadowTiddlers: they can be freely overwritten by creating a tiddler with the same title, but deleting that tiddler restores the underlying tiddler value from the plugin.
|
|
|
|
By convention, plugin titles have the form `$:/plugins/<publisher>/<name>`. Plugins that are part of the core TiddlyWiki distribution have titles of the form `$:/plugins/tiddlywiki/<name>`.

|
|
|
When [[running TiddlyWiki under Node.js|TiddlyWiki on Node.js]], plugins can also be stored as individual tiddler files in [[PluginFolders]].
