I'm using Ton Gerners top toolbar which also enables tagging in view mode (by adding buttons to the view page). However this functionality doesn't work anymore (tested with TW 5.1.22).

Any ideas? Thanks

Victor

As far as I can see  http://tw5toolbar.tiddlyspot.com/ is version 5.1.22 and the toggle tagging button works there.
It also works in my own wiki. Maybe you made other changes to your wiki?

I've also tried first the plugin page.. On my Desktop system I've used Firefox. On my smartphone I've tried Firefox, Ecosia browser and Chrome. None of them worked.

Hi Victor,

You are referring to my guide TW5 top toolbar v 6.19, so I assume you are using:

* Layout plugin v 0.4.34
* Toolbar plugin v 0.3.38

As Birthe says it works at http://tw5toolbar.tiddlyspot.com/ (using TW v 5.1.22). It works in her wiki(s) and my wiki(s).

> However this functionality doesn't work anymore...

When did it stop, what changes did you make?

Anyway, you can try simplified (checkboxes instead of buttons) experimental versions of both plugins, available at http://tw5exp.tiddlyspot.com/:

* Layout plugin v 0.4.35
* Toolbar plugin v 0.4.1

Hope that helps,

Ton

Hi Ton, 

thanks for your quick reply. Since it might be a browser specific problem (I've tested again on my smartphone and it still doesn't work) would you mind specifying which browser(S) (+versions) are you using? 

Thanks, 
Victor

I am using Linux Mint and Firefox.
I do not own a smartphone.

Hi Victor,

Just tested with http://tw5toolbar.tiddlyspot.com/
On my desktop PC I use Linux Mint 20. Firefox 80.0.1 and Chrome 83.0.4103.116 do work there.
On my phone (Android 8.0.0) it works with Firefox 80.1.3 and Chrome 85.0.4183.101.
On my iPad (iPadOS 13.7) it works with Safari and Chrome (don't know version numbers).

Hope that helps,

Ton

I've just recorded my screen on my Android smartphone to demonstrate:


Don't pay attention to the audio (my son was playing in the background :p)

Hi Victor,

Ah, I see that it is broken. I only checked in my last post if the tag field did appear, but did not check if adding tags works. Must have to do with changes in TW 5.1.22 (the tagging in view mode button toggles the $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/tags at a (an old) copy of $:/core/ui/EditTemplate/tags

That said, the experimental versions do work as you can check at http://tw5exp.tiddlyspot.com/
Here the tag will be toggled at $:/core/ui/EditTemplate/tags itself and not a copy of it.
Do this test at a desktop PC; on mobile there are problems, see below

I made these plugins for desktop use; on mobile there is not much room for all these buttons.

The plugin tweaks window opens in a new window on desktop but in a new tab on mobile.
In this window you have to check the 'Tagging in view mode' and readjust the order of tags (especially $:/core/ui/EditTemplate/tags) via the $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/tags tag pill.
I did not manage to reorder the tags on mobile; drag & drop does not work, so you have to do it on a desktop PC. Otherwise the tag field in view mode stays at the bottom.

Hope that helps,

Ton

Hi Victor,

thanks for your help.


 
There are updated versions of the plugins available at http://tw5toolbar.tiddlyspot.com (updated guide) and http://tongerner.tiddlyspot.com/
