Hi,

I installed tiddlywiki via npm as you said in the Installation instruction. When I press a button of saving in sidebar in the browser I receive "save file" message. I suppose that it does not behave like this because it's server side. What can I do? Is this a bug?

I don't understand. I would expect that pressing the save button would save and a notification of such would be displayed. Is that not what happens?

Can you clarify:
  1. What do you expect to happen when you press that button?
  2. What actually happens when you press that button?
  3. What is different between those two?

HI somen...

when you run tiddlywiki in nodejs there is a one to one mapping of tiddlers to files, edits you make to tiddlers are save via message thru nodejs to the files. There is still a 'save' button that makes a standalone tiddlywiki of all the tiddlers and downloads this as a single file.

all the best
