(First time Group Poster, 7 years TW user and fan.)
THE SHORT VERSION :
I need assistance in creating a TW5 file that is an alternative to eBook format - that is
- Non-editable by the reader
- Without the sidebar ( as navigation is / will be - via tags & links in each tiddler (chapter) and "close tiddler button" at the base of the long pages.)
- and no access to backend
Hi John,
If I have any questions - can I shoot them back to you ?
There's more but you get the gist of it in the links provided
I'll be open - I do need help as I am under the pump and what I can offer to you or anyone else who can help me get the" simple-for-you-guys but tough-for-me" edits done - attribution in the eBook if you like - and contribution to the TW fund.
Unsure what the protocol in this group is for sharing info - so i can be found on twitter @magillamax
cheers
John( links below as well )
Hi Mark.
In response to "Does zooming of TW on Safari on i-devices work appropriately?"
A definitive NO NEED TO !!
TW5 renders perfectly on iphone Safari !
I have uploaded a brief test version of the the TW5 version of Spiritual Quest to the cloud
find the Tiddlywiki HTML file here :
https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/32228399/e1d58c96f4c59316913ced53cddce460db9891f5/fe1ac6529f26949ac6be33ee187fe8c0.html
- open it on iphone USING Safari and see it live .
- More importantly - while open - BOOKMARK IT - then switch iphone SETTINGS to Airplane Mode ( it saves the file automatically to your phone now )
- and while still offline - close the tab - then open the Bookmark you just created = perfect rendition (offline)
and it saves everything as it's just the ONE HTML that was downloaded
so, as long as images are imported and save as tiddlers, its all there. - neat and clean
example screen grabs
( will obviously appear oversized on desk/lap -top but perfect on iphone ( BETTER ) than my PressBook ePub version
Major differences :
- Scroll down each page / chapter / tiddler - rather than thumb or tap sideways through pages
- Which has the advantage of faster back-tracking within same chapter
- But requires END OF TIDDLER ( CLOSE TIDDLER button to be handy THERE rather than scrolling back to the top )
- Feels more concise as this format of one chapter to one (long) page means 50 pages rather than 1100 !!!!! ( in full edition of ebook )
- THERE IS FAR LESS scrolling ( due to fewer page turns ) and FEELS more cohesive
- In TW5. Navigation has to be changed - I am adding a TOC tiddler + top and bottom tab type links
- There is NO bookmarking tab as in ePUBs top right of page
There's more but you get the gist of it in the links provided
I'll be open - I do need help and I am happy to provide attribution in the eBook if you like - and contribution to the TW fund.

Hi Mark ( and others )
I need to clarify what I have written below as it's not quite accurate and I need to clarify WHERE and HOW exactly tiddlywiki renders so crisply
I had a few friends "push back" on my enthusiasm regarding the less than perfect delivery of tiddlywiki on OLDER iphones, so I made the adjustment to delivery using the power of 2 alternative hosts that render documents and HTML properly.
When the TW file is hosted and shared via padlet.com (GoogleAPI cloud) there is a viewer in play that manipulates the HTML file - and so does Dropbox
A ( very incomplete ) example that I am currently re-creating can be found here - https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/32228399/d4a0eb1d1751fae680bd55ccde9abaa5e86e929a/220aafd2f907766559569637d5a2db4b.html which is padlet hosted ( which I suggest checking directly then saving locally iphone Offline Reading facility - that few know - but guess that most of you luminaries have it as 2nd nature. ( just in case - I've posted this up quickly - http://offlinereading.pen.io/ ) no logins required..
Reading offline is perfect and very handy for (e)BOOKS - which is my current obsession. Thanks to Ton Gerner I have almost nutted out the TW eBOOK "Readonly" version and will upload for inspection once complete ... keep in context it may be a little ??? for some of you - but it's about the ability to present cleanly and quickly. Seriously - you can write / copy up a book into TW - convert to readonly ( I aint fast at that yet ) then "publish via padlet or "Public" Dropbox in minutes - oh - and finally - to my joy - delivering via iphone / iOS allows for the use of any of the font sets within iphones / ipads -- which creates a great impression....( check iosfonts.com )
- All SETTINGS changes and removal of icon display works as explained in your Information tiddler , however :
- I can't locate where or how to delete/disable/secrete the rectangular search bar in the sidebar
- How do I remove the sidebar entirely?
- Does this cause problems in resurrecting the save button?
- For the READER it's not needed as set tiddlers open automatically and all navigation in the eBook is managed by links on every tiddler/chapter :>>- ( prev chapter / next chapter / close / to top of page / to Table of Contents etc ))
- If the Save button and sidebar must remain - can it appear at the "footer" - which is fine on mobile.
- I have been able to reprise the save button ( when opening .... .html/#$:/plugins/tongerner/ro/publish - however the checkboxes for 3A ( side bar open/ fold ) and 3b ( search icon ) aren't there and I haven't been able to find / resurrect them.
- to finish the process of making the TW readonly. ( need help - if easier i can provide my notes in setup and you'd likely find where I fouled up )
- Finally - there's no need for the timestamp under Tiddler Primary Name/ Heading, how can I effect its removal?
.tc-subtitle {display:none;}
- I hope this is not too much of an imposition. I truly appreciate any help I can get.

any feedback / observations / ideas etc GRATEFULLY WELCOMED.
I will make the eBook available via link on this page freely to this Group. It's spiritual guidance (non-religious) and female focussed - the male version is to follow with more "grunt" - but share as you wish. I'm certainly not pre-supposing as there will, no doubt be many of you out there challenging your dreams against the tide, making your own pathways. I hope that the elegance of this tiddywiki provides more intrigue and interest, as much in its delivery as in its content.
