Long time TW user here, I'd be lost without it, really enjoying TW5 now.

Question - what do people use for a splash screen, or first page content when TW is first fired up?  I've got nothing, just the search box and a list of the new tiddlers on the right.  Just for my own satisfaction I'd like something that looks a bit nicer and perhaps has some functionality - latest updated tiddlers, new tiddlers, most often looked up tiddlers - I think you get the idea.

Any suggestions or examples to point me to?

Thanks very much, and thanks for TiddlyWiki!

It really depends on what you are using it for, for my reference site I have a list of options for what are hopefully useful things for users. http://inmysocks.tiddlyspot.com/.

For the wiki I am using trying to build a blog or social media thing I just drop people into it. http://ooktech.com/jed/externalbrain/

The wikis I use for work aren't online, but they generally list the last few most recently changed tiddlers and the most recent notes I have left myself.

Hi Thomas

> Question - what do people use for a splash screen, or first page content when TW is first fired up? 

In the control panel you can set a list of "Default tiddlers" that are displayed when TiddlyWiki first starts up. I typically have a tiddler called "Dashboard" that contains my most often used links, and then put it at the top of the default tiddlers.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
