[tw5] i've found a bug in "Bob"

[ch]

hi,

"Bob" is your friend - don't lose him! ;-)

https://github.com/OokTech/TW5-Bob

i've found a bug in "Bob" - it seems that "Bob" are unable to handle customising tiddler file naming, i.e.

https://tiddlywiki.com/#Customising%20Tiddler%20File%20Naming

for example, if you have the following "FileSystemPaths.tid" tiddler file:

```

title: $:/config/FileSystemPaths
created: 20180926111156405
modified: 20180926111825184
tags:

[is[system]removeprefix[$:/config/PageControlButtons/Visibility/$:/]addprefix[.system/config/PageControlButtons/Visibility/.system/]]
[is[system]removeprefix[$:/config/ViewToolbarButtons/Visibility/$:/]addprefix[.system/config/ViewToolbarButtons/Visibility/.system/]]
[is[system]removeprefix[$:/]addprefix[.system/]]
[has[draft.of]addprefix[.draft.of/]]
[!has[draft.of]]

```

..stored in "IndexWiki/tiddlers/.system/config" directory

"Bob" wont let you change the title of the wiki, nor the subtitle, etc. "Bob" will always restore for example the title to "My ~TiddlyWiki" since he doesn't seem not to cope with customising tiddler file naming - can you fix "Bob" to do that?

this was tested with "BobWin32.exe" on windows 7 platform, and both the latest release version 1.0.6 (Salt Bagels 2: Bagel Harder) and the pre-release version 1.0.7 (Garlic Bagles) has this bug.

kind regards,

Try restarting the server after adding that. There is a known problem with adding sub-folders in the tiddlers folder when the server is running.

The title not changing is a result of the other bug because the system tiddlers are not properly accessible to the server.

adding sub-folders (done by the "FileSystemPaths" tiddler) while i run TiddlyWiki on Node.js works without issues - but "Bob" probably works in a different way compared to Node.js, i guess...

without the "FileSystemPaths" tiddler, it works without issues - but, then again every "ugly" TiddlyWiki configuration files end up in the "tiddlers" directory in a flat file structure.

it's not only the title changing that doesn't work - every configuration you can do on the control panel is not working if you utilize customising tiddler file naming...so, this is clearly broken in "Bob"

Yes, as I said it is a known problem. If the folders already exist and contain tiddlers when you start the server than it may work, but I haven't had time to fix this particular bug.

And with the settings you posted no system tiddler would be saved correctly so the results are what I would expect given the bug.
