Saving behaviour of a wiki on Tiddlyspot?

[Surya]

Hi all,

fine frustrated....

Yesterday I made a lot on my (public) wiki on tiddlyspot. Then before going to bed I had a look into it on my tablet and changed just a little bit. I saved that (with the checkmark) and thought that it would be just saved on web- like on my computer.
But it was downloaded.

I didn't want that, so I deleted that download on Android.

Today going again on this tiddlyspot-wiki I am shocked- everything I made yesterday is gone....!
I guess, there is no way to get back all the things of yesterday?

Also I'd like to know now:
How is the normal behaviour of such a public wiki on tiddlyspot:
When another person visits that site and looks into a tiddler to see the "construction" of it or changes something for testing purposes (as I did it so many times in other public wikis- it helped me already a lot for understanding).
a) How does the wiki behave, if the person doesn't click the save-checkmark after that?
b) How does the wiki behave, if the person clicks the save-checkmark after that?

Hi Surya,

Have you tried to go to tiddlyspot backup. Your url/backup, to see if anything more recent was saved before the "accident".

No one is able to change anything in your wiki, they cannot save it. That is if the person does not have your password.

If another person used your computer and browser it might remember your password and save your wiki, if that person is editing it. Otherwise saving will download a local copy of your tiddlywiki.

Hey Birthe :-)

Ahhhh great, I found the "lost" changes from yesterday (but strange- the backup-index shows me a totally wrong time- I saved the wiki yesterday at about 03:00. The shown time is 17:00).

THANKYOU!!!!!!!

If another person used your computer and browser it might remember your password and save your wiki, if that person is editing it. Otherwise saving will download a local copy of your tiddlywiki.

I made the very small change yesterday before going to bed on my tablet- never I put my password there?!?


Okay, if the outsider person (without password) changes anything, it won't be saved? He will only download then the wiki?

Fine :-)

Hi Surya,

The strange time is confusing when we have to restore backups from tiddlyspot. The host is in another time zone. Earlier today i looked at your wiki, if it is that wiki, at that time there were lots of tiddlers from your hard work yesterday. Now if I had not closed the tab with your wiki and not refreshed the browser, I could have saved a local copy of it all having tiddlers you had lost.

My friend and I saved some very hard tiddlywiki work at a time that way.
