Import broken?

[Diego Mesa]

I made a new journal button a couple days ago, and I am not sure how that is messing up my importing of plugins. I have restarted, etc. As you can see here:

when I try and drag the "'contains" plugin into my wiki, the import tiddler shows an untitled tiddler, which when I click to expand is a new journal button that already exists?

I can't see the image properly

Sorry about that - when I drag over a plugin from:

https://tobibeer.github.io/tb5/#plugins

I see the following:

Diego,

I went to the address https://tobibeer.github.io/tw5-plugins/#contains

And dragging the plugin works across browsers (Chrome to FF)  and tabs within a browser (FF) for me. Unlike you however I am careful not to drop on the green bar itself but below it because i was always accidentally dropping it into my bookmarks bar and getting unpredictable results or a red boxed message. 

Try that!

For me, on both chrome and firefox, and just dragging onto the body of the document instead of the green bar produces the same result. I fear I've broken my importing system! 

[BJ]

to be clear, can you go to https://tobibeer.github.io/tw5-plugins/#contains and drag the link  $:/plugins/tobibeer/contains on to your TW

[Diego Mesa]

BJ when I do that I get an an import window popup that is trying to import the wrong tiddly as shown above

[BJ]

without have the wiki to examine I can thing of anything.... but you could download an empty tw from tiddlywiki.com and drag you old wiki on to it? (i.e. make a new TW with tiddlers from you own and see if your problem goes away)

[Diego Mesa]

I did that, and was able to install the plugin into the new version of my tiddlywiki. Hm not sure what happened there but thank you!

HI Diego,

If you drag something, that is not really a link to a tiddler, the import tiddler opens with untitled. If you close that tiddler without cancelling/deleting the import, you will see the same untitled, the next time you try to import. The same happens if you try to import something and do not import or cancel import, but close the tiddler. Just delete tiddler $:/Import.
