I know that Comptext is a popular plugin, so I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot. I added the plugin to my wiki and also changed the text editor to comptext, but completion mode doesn't work. Here's the kicker: completion mode works, but only in the tiddlers that came with the plugin e.g, $:/plugins/snowgoon88/edit-comptext and $:/plugins/snowgoon88/edit-comptext/usage 
Thank you!

I've just tested adding that plugin to a brand-new, empty wiki, and
completion works as expected (triggered when I type [[ and then a couple
of characters for the title), in regular tiddlers.

I did have to install the plugin twice, as if I had fumbled the install
the first time, which I feel I didn't...

Perhaps you should try again, in an empty wiki?

I just deleted the plugin and re-imported it. I learned some new information! 
Autocomplete works on the page, but not on individual blocks (I'm using the Streams plugin). It should work on individual blocks too because it works in this Tiddlywiki, that uses both Streams and the Comptext plugin. 
Any ideas on where to go from here? 

Best,

Saq created a demo that integrated both plugins here: https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/1jTwdmq8cgI/m/gK1kWvFYBwAJ

I'm not sure if anything has happened with this since.

Here is another plugin that includes a similar auto-complete feature: https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/_61Wvbkph9w/m/iKSDyKq3AAAJ

Maybe it is possible to integrate it with Streams?

Wonderful, thank you. The plugin saq provides works with Streams. It doesn't look like he's updated it from the test version, so I sent him a message. 
I checked out Code Mirror, but it's a bit too much for me right now. 
Do you know how to bulk remove all plugin content tiddlers? I disabled the CodeMirror plugin, but it would be nice to also remove all of the plugin's contents.

@rika Although they appear as individual tiddlers in the wiki, the tiddlers that make up a plugin are actually all stored within the main plugin tiddler (see https://tiddlywiki.com/#Plugins). So all you have to do to remove them is delete the main plugin tiddler.

Thank you! I read up on plugins, and now it make sense how to remove them. Thank you!
