Shortly I will publish an on line copy with local storage allowing easy testing of the pre-release including with plugin installs without download. Perhaps this could become a standard part of the release process. It may encourage more people to test, although a copy of any wiki, upgraded to the pre-release is a great way for people to test whole wikis. (But testers do revert to your original until the final release).

@coda coder I want to take credit for that because I kick myself for not thinking of it. However that was all Jeremy's idea.
I just got excited when he posted an early version and took on the task of polishing it up so it was ready for 5.1.23. I share your excitement, it is the most excited I have been about something new in TW since we first got custom fields way back in the days of TiddlyWiki Classic.
I’m hoping that we’ll be able to release v5.1.23 of TiddlyWiki towards the end of this week. There’s some discussion over on GitHub about the last few loose ends to be tied up:The most important call to action is for developers of plugins and adaptations to take this opportunity to verify that the new release doesn’t break anything.The second call to action is for as many people as possible to put the new release through it’s paces by performing a test upgrade of the wikis that are important to them. Don’t switch over to the new version yet, of course.You can upgrade single file wikis here:This is a really quite a massive release, with over 160 new features listed in the release note. (I am working on improvements to the presentation of the release note, it’s a bit of a wall of text right now).Just to mention a handful of new features that I’m particularly excited about:* Keyboard support for the main core dropdowns: search, new tag, tiddler type, new field, and the “link” button in the editor toolbar
* The beginnings of support for switchable page templates (referred to as layouts), which will give us a route to introduce a more modern alternative layout
So when I drag my TW over the upgrade tool and then it presents a list of tiddlers before I click the upgrade button, I'm assuming that this is the list of tiddlers that are getting imported into the prerelease version from my TW. Is that a correct assumption?
The problem is that I transclude the default search results tiddler into the current one, but the macro in it refers to the fields, which doesn't work because of transclude. So I had to expand transclude in my search results.
Some Tiddlywiki empty file (empty.html) does not have the plugin library so one cannot install the official plugin. If so do as below
