Simple TW with Categories/Sub Categories

[Gabriel Franklin]

Hi!

I'm looking for a simple TW to keep my notes and clippings organized under one roof. I would prefer one that'll work with categories, sub categories, and possibly a 3rd lvl sub category.

I tried building one myself, but having mental blocks (due to my disability) and not getting anywhere.

Looking for help.

 

Might you have one that fits this description that you can share with me?

Can I appeal to you to build me one?

Thanks

Do you have try with  tag ? I think you can organized tiddler to have categories and sub categories.

Or want do you mean by categories ?

Hi, you can read post title "Newbie with questions :)", there some information that can help you :)

Hi Gabriel
Maybe I misunderstand what you are looking for. But my bet would be to have a look at http://tiddlywiki.com/#TableOfContentsMacro. Having a Contents tab in the sidebar and use the new here button when taking notes, really brings us a long way, I feel.

Thanks for all the pointers. It doesn't resolve my problem as I am currently mentally unable to to process the information. I have tried, but the more I push, I pay a price.

Are you mentally able to tell us what you think a "category", "sub category" and "possibly a 3rd lvl sub category" is for YOU?

To me all of these are simply a matter of interpretation. So if I say tag "A" is a category and tag "1" is a sub category, I already have my category and sub category. No need to program anything.

The only thing I might like to do is, for example, define that my (sub) categories appear in different shades of blue (or any other color) depending on the level of the category. So I would go and create a tiddler for every category and add the field "color".

That's it.

Now please try to explain your view on categories.

Thanks Stephan.

Using my illness as an example.

Category "Medical"

     sub-category "Name of Condition 1"

          sub-sub-category "Treatment"

          sub-sub-category "Specialists"

     sub-category "Name of Condition 2"

          sub-sub-category "Documentation"

I'm sure it's simple, and all there already as basic TW.

The problem is myself. I can't put the pieces (tags and etc.) together and form a Wiki.

Thanks

Using your example I would create these tiddlers

Tiddler Title: "Medical"
    tag: "category"

Tiddler Title: "Name of Condition 1"
    tag: "sub-category"

Tiddler Title: "Name of Condition 2"

    tag: "sub-category"

Tiddler Title: "Treatment"
    tag: "sub-sub-category"

Tiddler Title: "Specialists"
    tag: "sub-sub-category"

Tiddler Title: "Documentation"
    tag: "sub-sub-category"

Give each of the tiddlers a nice color refecting the category level. So for example: "Medical" in dark blue, Condition 1 & 2 in a medium blue and the rest in light blue.

Create one temporary tiddler with any name and ALL Categories, sub-categories and sub-sub-categories as tags. This is just so that you prepare the tags and they will appear in the list of tags.

Now create, as an example a tiddler which should be a documentation.

Give it any title and apply the tags "Medical", "Name of Condition 2", "Documentation".

That's it.


Please note: This all

Thanks Stephan.

I will try to work with your instructions and see if I could get it to work.

No. Sorry! I started to type that, then appended something before and forgot about that unrequired stuff I already started.

[Stephan Hradek]

I had a second thought.

To get some hierarchy, create a tiddler "Categories". Give it a field "list" containing a list of your Categories. In the example it would only contain "Medical" (without the quotes).

Give the "Medical" tiddler a field "list" containing the sub categories. So in your example "[[Name of Condition 1]] [[Name of Condition 2]]" (without the quotes! The brackets are required as the sub categories contain blanks,)

Give the "Name of Condition 1" tiddler a field "list" containing its sub categories "Treatment Specialist" (without... You already know)

Give the "Name of Condition 2" tiddler a field "list" containing its sub category "Documentation"

Create an overview tiddler like so:

<$list filter="[list[Categories]]">

! <$link><<currentTiddler>></$link>

<$list filter="[list[]]">

!! <$link><<currentTiddler>></$link>

<$list filter="[list[]]">

!!!<$link><<currentTiddler>></$link>

</$list>

</$list>

</$list>

Here's how I would set it up, having TagglyTagging in mind...

tiddler: Medical

tags: Conditions

tiddler: Condition 1

tags: Condition, Medical

tiddler: Condition 1 - Treatment

tags: [[Condition 1]], Treatment

tiddler: Condition 1 - Specialists

tags: [[Condition 1]], Specialists

etc...

For an example of such a tagging hierarchy, see...

Best wishes, Tobias.

Hi tobias.
Just a suggestion. Remove the 5 from your examples and talk about TiddlyWiki.
TiddlyWiki is version 5 now and there is TiddlyWiki-classic or TWc if you want.

Would this work for you?

I'll try to keep that in mind, although I'm not entirely convinced just yet. ^^
