Hi,

I am trying to export the tiddlers of a Tiddlywiki5 to classsic one.

The export all feature is not working properly as only one tiddler is exported (!).

Is there any other way to import from TW5 to TWC ?

thx in advance,

Chris

I'm guessing that you're trying the "tid" export? I've asked about this before. The tid export option only puts out one tiddler. The other 3 export formats put out everything as advertised.

You might try to export as CSV. Then use Eric's CreateTiddlersFromCSV tool (tiddlytools.com) to import. Might be worth a shot.

There is a version of tiddlyclip for tiddlyclassic - http://tiddlyclip.tiddlyspace.com - it can copy tiddlers by tag from tw5 to twc, but it would involve setting up the tiddlyclip firefox extension

all the best

no luck, as the F firefox blocks unverified extensions (even when I set tho false the the xpinstall.signatures.required)

I hope the CreateTiddlersFromCSV will work..

cheers

Glad you got it sorted.
