Tiddlydesktop 32bity5/27/2023 ![]() ![]() Thank you, Jeremy and Eirc Shulman, among others! I would like to move to using TiddlyDesktop instead of Firefox browser. I have been using TiddlyWiki as an offline wiki, from my USB drive for nearly a decade now (wow! time flies!!). I am sorry that I wrote a lot and probably not so clear paragraphs.Thanks in advance for taking time to read through and answering these questions.ġ. I hope this answer is helpful, if there is anything too confusing, let me know. html file and just remember to save the most recent version to replace the old one (unless you use addons). (This is the problem because normal web browsers are denied local file access for security reasons, this is one difference that TiddlyDesktop is a browser that is set to allow it.) So, yes, you can use it directly, without taking files out, just open and use the. You can see how this process can be a little tedious, this is why people use browser addons like Timimi to save with just 1 click. html file in your browser, then you press the save button and then it asks you to download "html" file, which you replace your old version. Basically, you can function pretty much without TiddlyDesktop, you just open the. The advantages of TiddlyDesktop are few, mainly easier saving. Actually, you can use Web Browser instead of TiddlyDesktop. It doesn't backup external files, it only backups your. Maybe you mean TiddlyDesktop's backup folder. I do not know what is "It's own backup feature" or what you mean by that. Honestly, that's the only way that I know? This is how you backup your TiddlyWikis just like how you backup any of your files. Those you can use any other normal backup solutions that exist for normal files. "files outside TiddlyWiki" would be the external attachments. TiddlyDesktop is a "fancy (web) browser" that only opens html files with interface for quickly opening your wikis.ģ. So it can be transferred/installed to any other TiddlyWiki if needed. Basically, TiddlyRoam is a "plugin" to TiddlyWiki. Yes, TiddlyRoam "is the same" as TiddlyWiki. Sorry for this being long and confusing a little, it probably is a bit abstract answer and would need illustration.Ģ. So putting them in a folder, makes it easier to move retaining the folder structure of the "attachments". html file is the core of your notes, any attachments are recommended to be used as external files in relative location to that. However it is important to ensure you use "relative" paths and not "absolute" for this to work. You will know that any files it uses are from that folder. That way you can just copy the folder and use it anywhere else. MyWiki/MyNotes.html and you place and files you wish in that folder. You simply create a folder that will contain your notes. So for now, we are concerned on file level, so I say. I assume that "attachments" would mean images and other files that you may want to include in your Wiki and you will probably use the "TiddlyDesktop" attachment plugin, which makes them into "skinny" tiddlers that use _canonical_uri field with path to find the file.īasically, I would suggest and just like how you will need to do it for the most part of TiddlyWiki is to decide where things go (both file wise and in your wiki "meta" wise). So I will keep this in mind and answer your questions.ġ. Thank you in advance for any and all help.įirst of, because you mentioned TiddlyDesktop, I will assume you will be mostly using. Is it possible to export and import between TiddlyWiki and TiddlyRoam? I read that you can back up files outside TiddlyWiki with it's own backup feature, does this also copy your attachements?Ĭan I use TiddlyWiki/Tiddlyroam in a webbrowser by just taking files out of TiddlyDesktop if I wanted to put it on a memory stick? Is TiddlyRoam the same as TiddlyDesktop/TiddlyWiki and if I would try that can I move those files too? (Unfortunately I'm borrowing a computer at the moment until I can get my own.) If I install TiddlyDesktop and add a bunch of attachments and have to move to another computer with another operating system what files do you have to copy with you to a new install on a new operating system that has TiddlyDesktop? Came across Roam Research on YouTube at first but I simply can't afford it and this lead me here. Been frantically looking for something to store notes or brain in beside pen and paper and notepad. Not much work where I live but got a second chance thanks to what I guess you could call a reeducation program. Long story short Industry I worked in wasn't doing to well before covid-19 but is going belly up now and been laid off. ![]() Please bare with me for 20 seconds, have some beginner questions about TiddlyWiki and surrounding. ![]()
