Hit some difficulties so I haven't gotten it up yet bur hopefully soon-- it 45 or so pages divided between a sample essential references section and a central references search section.

The search section allows searching wikitext markup, keyboard shortcuts, widgets basic code, filter operators mini database (about 300 entries) quick searches (in the screenshots seen as a sidebar search tiddler) for easy use and copying & pasting from.

In a tiddler- search and display of TW static pages (see screenshot), TW Toolmap*** (see screenshot) and Tiddlywiki Google Groups (TW5, TWDoc, TWDev).

*** (Mohammad, I didn't need to borrow yours, my design could do it the same way it does with static pages, Google search and Wikipedia pages using what I posted about search a wiki from Google sheets which can also be used as "search query" links for Google Docs & web pages)

From a tiddler- "search query" (leveraging story list function of permaview) link generation for any online Tiddlywiki to open them in a new browser tab with the "search query"

Dealing with some issues with the select a wiki search to replace the original individual wiki tailored searches-- once its done I just need to spin off the References portal & search to its own wiki.  The searches were initially separate-- like for TWcom, TB5 and TWScripts which I referenced quite often.

This builds off of the TWGuideDoc and the search Google/Wikipedia, search wiki from Google Sheets-- but also incorporates/references ideas from others-- Tobias Beer, Mohammad, Jed Carty.

Shame I didn't do a "stream" of its creation and how I used it to refine and troubleshoot it-- like referring to, searching for & copying/pasting code snippets from the sidebar or accessing & copying/pasting from official TW static pages from the story river.

But that's not all! For -$ 9.99 more... << >> couldn't stop myself-- you get in-tiddler usable html tags, wiki system elements/tags with the sidebar quick ref search-- will be adding wiki css classes once I finish the list...

According to WikiWitchery, I believe we're good to go

Somebody didn't stop me, so I added even more pages (like a search list for videos at TWCom).  But the online wiki's search looks like this and the whole thing should be up at TiddlySpot in a day or two, barring me not adding more to it *(trust me i do have more to add like figuring a search of Groups by tag)

As long as I don't get prize C : )

Blame on it @Somebody-- they didn't stop me...

These sidetrackings has led me to the grandest, maddest of pursuits-- a way to find most wikis...

"And I shall call it Ash krimpatul.  One wiki  to find them, one wiki to bring them all and in the ether** bind them..."

*postures grandly, reveling in visions of granduer*

*whispering*

"What is it Igor?"

*whispering*

"I didn't finish forging it yet?  Right, well then... I'll be back!"

*exits*


** or smoke of the grinding gears of my mind

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,

: D

At Gloamamur in Gloomor where the drears lie, the command was uttered... "Go forth my dire search queries.  Crawl the ether, scour the Google.  Find the wikis!"

And the Eye of Gloom fell upon the realm of TiddlySpot and the names of the wikis were entered into the Tiddler of Data...

some 3,520 of em >.<

busy finishing up Searching high n low before I get sidetracked by yet another mad creation...The Eye of Gloom... << >>

see the flurry of activity

numbers can be skewed for days after the current one-- i they are modified on the current day they get taken from the counts for other days

that be a filter taken from the timeline macro and hack to do counts instead-- to generate the bar graphs-- all in a list widget

Just about there...

lots of final edits-- each days count is unique titles, no titles are repeated in counts so that 90 something tiddlers

and how it will look on TiddlySpot in Opera-- added a mockup of a concept for a references doc collective wiki
