Hi,

I often want to change tags on tiddlers without editing the contents, so it is unnecessary for me to put the tiddler into draft mode. Has anyone created a mechanism for the faster adding, editing, and removing of tags? Ideally, this would still include the autocomplete feature. Or should I try to create this myself?

Thanks,
Matt

Matabele has this:

http://simple-tagger.tiddlyspot.com/

But it doesn't have auto-completion, so I rarely use this tool unless I have a lot of tag moving/copying to do.

Hi Matt,

For my lists of tiddlers I made a special tool listreveal that
a) lets you open listed tiddlers and see their tags and other details (similar to the new tiddler manager but simpler)
b) lets you add or remove tags based on all tiddlers in the list with two clicks (only suggestions, no input field yet)

The tagging popup looks like this:




I plan to update my listreveal plugin as soon as I have some documentation ready. Let me know if you are interested.

Good luck!
Thomas

Hi all, 

Wow, thanks for all these tools. I will definitely try them all out.

Thomas,

Listreveal looks great! I am excited to try it, have you uploaded it yet?

Thanks!
Matt

Matt, you can play with listreveal on my hacks page: http://tid.li/tw5/hacks.html#ToDoNow

But this is a working draft, no plugin, no docs. Possibliy your feedback could speed things up a bit ;–)

Have a nice day!
Thomas

Hi Thomas,

I just loaded your plugin and got it set up.  It's wonderful!  It improve my data entry flow quite a bit.

How can I keep up to date with bug fixes and enhancements for it?  Do you have a notification list or blog or some such?

Thanks,
Stefi

Hi Stefi

Glad you like my stuff!

How can I keep up to date with bug fixes and enhancements for it?  Do you have a notification list or blog or some such?

Good question: Until now I posted hints to updates in this group here. I am not quite up-to-date, but I think I have heard about upcoming RSS features in the next TW version 5.1.14 – would RSS be a preferred channel for you?

All the best!
Thomas

Hi Thomas,

RSS would be a fine channel. Definitely so!

Take care,
Stefi

I'm a big fan of Rename Tags, found in http://tw5magick.tiddlyspot.com. And, I recently posted a simple solution to this group to add a tag to a filtered list of toddlers. //steve.

Tobias Beer made an improved version of the rename tags tool that doesn't use two steps. The link is here: http://tobibeer.github.io/tb5/#Search%20And%20Replace%20Tag

If there is interest I may restart work on the tiddler editing tool here (http://ooktech.com/jed/ExampleWikis/TiddlerTools/) and release it as a collection of plugins under OokTech. After a bit more experience I think that it should be made up of a collection of smaller tools that can be displayed in a single tiddler instead of trying to create the entire thing as a single wikitext tool.
