Hi there.

I've been working on the CCTW 1.9 minimal code and posting the changes
here: https://github.com/Steinthor/CCTiddlywiki

I've been fixing:
1) php notice errors in the error log, I don't like errors in the
error log.
2) updated Tiddlywiki code to 2.6.2.
2) cookies working properly with the new TW code.
3) images display with statistics in "statistics"
4) upgraded how "revisions" work, now you see literally what has
changed.
5) removed the "static" plugin, I didn't know what it did.
6) added ckeditor as its own plugin, (if you click "new tiddler" with
it enabled, you see it, on older tiddlers you don't see it).

I've yet to:
1) try the other plugins which followed with 1.9 minimal
2) test if _everything_ really works properly with ckeditor (probably
not).
3) test working with workspaces.
4) clean up old files which are obsolete.

I would like to research:
1) adding a new "create user" wizard (as admin) and a "reset <user>
password" option into "workspace administration"
2) a simple way to see and add images from your server to a tiddler
while you're editing it
3) adding the monkeypirateTW plugins into a plugin
4) automatically updating your loaded TW with updates from other users
(no more having to reload because someone else fiddled with it).
5) improving the plugins interface so that you can disable/enable a
plugin from within the wiki as admin, and not have to edit the config
file at all for plugins.
6) make the install of the wiki more automatic, so you only need to
copy the files over, and run the wiki and a wizard asks the rest.

These "yet to"/"research" lists are what I might attempt to work on in
the future. I might do all of those soon, or I might not have the
time (or be successful) to do any of it until after 2+ years, time
will tell.

If you try it out, let me know.

Regards,
S.

Just added research item 4) - added it as a plugin "ccTiddlyUpdates",
it should check with the server when you mouse over a tiddler, every
20 seconds for changes (doesn't poll if you're not on the page). It
also lets you know if the tiddler you're editing has been changed, and
if you cancel editing it, it should grab the new tiddler so you can
then edit it, but I'm still working out the kinks with that, for some
reason there pops an error if you try and save on top of a refreshed
tiddler you just tried to edit.

I'm using firefox to test with, and it works there, it's not working
properly with IE (surprise, surprise). I'm not even sure if I can
debug what's happening with IE (firebug, I <3 thee), if I can find
some way to see the posts to the server and debug it, I might fix it
for IE.

As I raised some concerns in the last reply, I just wanted to note
that I've fixed them along with other stuff I've found problems with.

I've also tested workspaces successfully (so far) and that has worked
(was on the yet to do list).

Pretty happy with it so far.

S.

Hi!
Is there a simple ZIP file for download? I'm not really familiar with
github download methods.

Also, there were some issues when deleting tiddlers (1) and importing
them (2), and I think Kashgarinn found some other solutions for
various issues.

Anyway, I'm glad someone is developing ccTiddly further and I'm
looking forward to do some testing. :)

Thumbs up for further development:)

I am not sure if the "yet to"/"research" list in your post above is
already prioritized or random, but in my opinion it would really be
helpful to have install script in place before other things. I am
partial to linux (ubuntu), however windows would do fine. I know I am
asking a lot, but I don't have the knowledge myself... this kind
request goes of course to anyone with knowledge and will:)

regards,
seba

You just click the "Download" button on: https://github.com/Steinthor/CCTiddlywiki
- to the right, you get the option to download it as zip.

Yeah, I'm Kashgarinn.. I found it silly to be under a pseudonym, so I
changed it.

I haven't yet looked into importing, it's a huge black hole of
securitypriviledgerightsnaziism which might never get solved properly,
and needs quite a lot of research just to start it, but it's a really
important bit for TW purposes so it has to be looked into.

Random.
