Create a temporary or arbitrary doorway into TW with input from the URL.

[h0p3]

I'm sorry that I don't even know how to ask this question correctly. Is there a way to create a temporary or arbitrary doorway into TW with "input" from the URL? I have no idea if this is possible, but perhaps it may be something most people already know how to do. I'm clueless.

* I would like to embed a search term or filter expression into a link to my wiki which would show the results.

* I want to select a look or mode from the URL.

What is the FOOBAR in your item descriptions? You can pretty much pass anything that you would pass in a filter:

** Opens in story river. Note the day notation has to be without dots for "sameday" to work:

https://philosopher.life/#:[sameday[20190421]]

** Search for python :

https://philosopher.life/#:[search[Python]]

** Link to a filter expression based search for all Prompted Introspections which mention "Vacation": 

Note that you have to convert spaces to %20 in order to pass them as URL's. This could be done in a macro, possibly, using the url-encode filter.

https://philosopher.life/#:[search:title[Prompted%20Introspection]search:text[Vacation]]

You can select tiddlers that contain mode settings, but I would be surprised if you could set them with a url. That would require a on-open action tiddler, I think. Is there such a thing?

Good luck!
