Is it possible to make a tree of pages that are transcluded inside one
another based upon tagging(like the TagsTree plugin?)

Hi Jarble,

I guess you would have to use custom fields for such a feature.
What do you want to accomplish with this? Maybe something else already
existing could do the same?

Regards..

Yes, it's possible that an existing add-on would do the same, but I
haven't yet found one. Any further suggestions?

Maybe I misunderstood your question?

Wasn't it your idea to transclude, a term mean embedding the text
portion of a tiddler, based on tagging?

So, for example, when the tiddler title is 'Main', all tiddlers tagged
with 'Main' will be transcluded and their whole text displayed in the
tiddler titled 'Main'?

Yes, that's what I'm looking for.

That's why I recommended using custom fields for such a feature,
otherwise you soon might run into recursion errors.

You could use a ForEachTiddlerPlugin, as Alex did with tabs here:

Sorry, don't know how this would look like, I'm not that familiar with
FET.

If only one level of transclusion would suffice, Erics
[[EmbedTiddlers]] might offer a solution, since it embeds tiddlers by
tag:

hope that helps you further..

Put this inline script [1] into a tiddler called
[[EmbedTaggedTiddlers]]:

<script>
var out=[];
var tag=story.findContainingTiddler(place).getAttribute('tiddler');
var tids=store.getTaggedTiddlers(tag);
for (var t=0; t<tids.length; t++)
out.push('<<tiddler [['+tids[t].title+']]>>');
return out.join('\n');
</script>

Then, in [[ViewTemplate]], you can write:
<div macro='tiddler EmbedTaggedTiddlers'></div>

That should do it... any tiddler that is used as a tag will now
automatically transclude content from all tiddlers that are tagged
with that title.

enjoy,
