Hello,

I'm interested in plugins that flip between publishing and editing
mode. I'm aware there are a few things, like Saq's (PublisherPlugin
which I think is incomplete?) and Jeremy's plugin to move Tiddlers
list to Backstage. Is there anything else?

I'm ideally looking for a single plugin I can drop in, which will
perhaps keep the main menu and story, while moving the entire sidebar
to Backstage. Or perhaps a toggle beside Backstage to show and hide
the sidebar (with suitable alterations to the CSS layout).

None of this is too difficult to implement, but thought I'd check for
prior art before proceeding myself.

Thanks.

Hi Michael

Don't know if this is what you need:
BackstageSidebarPlugin by Jonathan Lister:
http://www.tiddlywiki.org/wiki/Dev:Backstage#Customization

Is it BackstageTiddlersPlugin by Jeremy Rustun you ar referring to?
http://www.osmosoft.com/#BackstageTiddlersPlugin

Eric toggle sidebar scripts http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ToggleRightSidebar
and http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ToggleLeftSidebar
are very usefull and can be controlled from a configtweaks tiddler:
config.options.chkShowRightSidebar= false;
config.options.chkShowLeftSidebar= true;

Regards Måns Mårtensson

FiddlyWiki has a nice "hide menus button" which leaves a little button
in the top right corner:

There's a newer version (FiddlyWiki 1.1.3 -> 2.0.1 TiddlyTools) of the
Plugin at TiddlyTools:

What Måns is actually referring to with hide menus button is.

http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ToggleFullScreen

As to your original question... it really boils down to what you
consider 'publishing mode' or 'editing mode'. So maybe you might want
to define that for us more specifically and see what answers come up.

Anyways.. I believe this is not a matter of plugins, but rather of
defining / and switching templates the way you want them... e.g. to
maybe have an 'edit template' when working local and a 'published
template' for your online version.

Tobias.

A bookmarklet to set username would be good.
I use a ConfigTweaks defining readonly, then hideWhen the bits I don't want seen when the username is not mine.

To get back to editing state, i have to open another TW up, save, refresh, then re-fresh the one i'm working on

Hi,
MPTW[1] is the starting point for my TW[2]. Because of its Theme
switching capabilities.

I am using the readOnly variable which I define in [4]
http://a-pm.tiddlyspot.com/#zzMptwUserConfigPlugin. I am using the
name for deciding to switch to edit mode. I think, you could use any
other option variable there.

Some lines below is the "config.options.txtTheme = 'a-pmTheme';"

which can be changed to
// example: set the theme you want to start with
if ( readOnly)
config.options.txtTheme = 'a-pmPresentationTheme';
else
config.options.txtTheme = 'a-pmTheme';

On my local file it works great.

For displaying/hiding you can use HideWhenPlugin [3] with the view/
page templates.

regards Mario
