Multiple tagging at once
Nicolas Syssoieff
I've been looking everywhere and I can't find a decent solution to do what I'm trying to do.
Suppose I have 100+ tiddlers, tagged "Projects".
Now I have changed my mind, and I'd like to divide them into tags "Project1", "Project2", "Project3", creating three subsets.
How can I do that easily (other than manually, of course) ?
The closest thing I have tried is the MultiTagEditorPlugin, found on Tiddlyvault, but for some reason it doesn't work on my TW (if anyone is familiar with it, then here is the error : after two or three clicks, the "refresh list" and "add to list" button stop working and that's it - more, I think it corrupts the TW, because afterwards I can't upload it back online any more, so I've stopped using it, full stop)
Therefore, what I would require is just to be able to manage all tags of all tiddlers in one single place.
I would dream of a very simple thing, let's say a large table where I would see all tiddlers in this format :
[Tiddler 1|"List of tiddler 1 tags"|
[Tiddler 2|"List of tiddler 2 tags"|
with simple editable form fields which would allow me to quickly copy paste values from one to another, etc...
Then a large submit button would apply all these tags across all TW ?
Am I dreaming ? ;)

Not sure if this helps, but try this adaptation of Saq's RenameTag

This allows you to replace a single tag with multiple tags (e.g. "foo"
turns into "bar [[lorem ipsum]]"). (Just to be on the safe side, make
sure you create a backup before applying this.)
However, as I understand it, you do not want to assign all subsets to
each tiddler tagged with "projects" - so we'd need to specify some sort
of condition for automatic processing...

Have you tried Eric's TiddlerTweakerPlugin:

It seems that the bookmarklet does not perform the actions I'd like
However, the TiddlerTweakerPlugin looks promising.
I'll have a look at it and let you know if this corresponds to my needs.
THanks !

That's why i was looking for some alternate solutions.
Thanks anyway.
