How-to: Delete a tiddler without confirmation!

[Rustem]

1. Gleaned from the source code
   • If the text field does not exist or is empty, there will be no confirmation.
   • See http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#%24%3A%2Fcore%2Fmodules%2Fwidgets%2Fnavigator.js, under // Seek confirmation.
2. Found experimentally
   • Button widget can execute two actions - child action first, then integrated action.
   • See http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#ButtonWidget for definitions

So, to delete a tiddler without confirmation, remove the text field first.

<$button message="tm-delete-tiddler" param=<<sliderState '$tiddler$'>> class=<<sliderButtonClasses>>
><$action-deletefield $tiddler=<<sliderState '$tiddler$'>> $field=text/>-</$button>

Enjoy!

Good advise.

The only think I don't like is mixing action widgets and button widgets. It is not consistent to use both to send messages. You can include as many actions widgets inside a button as you want. They will be executed secuencially, and it is more readable.
