Hi TwWizards

After I updated EditFieldPlugin http://www.tiddlytools.com/#EditFieldPlugin
My editfields have stopped working - I'm no longer prompted to save -
and I have to go into editmode to editfield.

You can test it here (in "Noter (Besked i fagsiden:):") :

Does it conflict with FieldsEditorPlugin http://visualtw.ouvaton.org/VisualTW.html
??

I have been having similar trouble. I tried the plugin in an empty TW
(version 2.5.3) and still couldn't get it to work.

Sorry, I realized that I could have been more specific about what I
tried:
I tested the examples in the plugin itself. None of the things I
typed in were saved (the "save changes to..." message did not pop up
when I clicked away from any of the boxes).

In order to test in any kind of useful way, I need a *minimal* test
case that demonstrates the problem *and* eliminates as many causes as
possible. Typically this is done by installing the suspected plugin
"in an empty TW", (as cmari did), so that I can immediately try a
*simple* test case, without needing to suss what the rest of the
document is about or how it has been customized. Of course, some
problems aren't reproducible with a simple test case, so the fully-
customized document *must* be used, but this should be avoided if at
all possible.

When a truly minimal test case document is available, I am more likely
to reproduce the problem and find a solution within a few minutes, as
compared to the hour or two that was spent unsuccessfully
investigating Mans' highly-customized document.

... and, indeed, I've found the problem with this plugin and have
fixed it...

Get the update (v1.5.1) here:

enjoy,

Sorry Eric, I wasn't being fair (just gave up and sent a link, you
know...)-
I will get better at making real testcases in the future - promise.
- and thank you very much for fixing the plugin - can't live without
it..
