Re: [tw] [TW5] Something disabled my table of contents

Hi Samppa

It sounds like your following the correct steps to add a new entry to the TOC. A few possible thoughts:

* Are you using any plugins that might be interfering with the refresh process?

* Have you overridden any shadow tiddlers? Use $:/AdvancedSearch, switch to the "Filter" tab and select "Overridden shadow tiddlers" from the dropdown. You'll see a list of shadow tiddlers that have been overridden; some of them are expected (eg $:/SiteTitle and $:/SiteSubtitle), but look out for any overridden .js tiddlers

If all else fails, you might try experimenting by gradually dragging your tiddlers across to an empty TiddlyWiki, and checking the behaviour.

Best wishes

Hello!

I encountered a problem. My table of contents doesn't work like it used to, it wont give me those > arrows for selective-expandable lists.

(I am using Centralized experimental theme if this might be a problem?)

This is my basic TOC tab in the side bar

TAG: $:/tags/SideBar

<div class="tc-table-of-contents">
<<toc-selective-expandable 'TOC'>>
</div>

List-before: $:/core/ui/SideBar/Open

Under that I have sub TOCs like so:

TAG: TOC

<<list-links "[tag[VR]]">>

And under that I have tiddlers with the tag VR.

So it used to work like this, when I created a new tiddler with TOC tag and <<list-links "[tag[NewTag]]">> and after that new tiddler with NewTag it would show in the sidebar with the arrow > giving me access straing from the sidebar.

Currently the arrow doesn't show up, but if I open the tiddler that lists NewTag, it will show everything there.

Hi Samppa

That's very strange. An intermittent fault where we see different results from different runs of the same tests suggests that there's an interaction with something other than TiddlyWiki.

It's difficult but the only hope of fixing this is to be able to replicate the behaviour. So I'd be grateful for your patience if you were able to devise a series of steps that will cause the problem to occur so that I can investigate it.

Best wishes

Jeremy.

Hi Jeremy. Thanks for taking the time to answer me!

I've been meaning to update on the matter:

The problem is not because I broke something playing around with plugins or shadow/system tiddlers.

It seems that the problem is either related to Windows 7/8.1, Chrome, or TiddlyWiki platform in itself.

I came to this conclusion when I started to recreate my wiki from the empty.html file.

I moved step by step, saving between every change to a different file in the same folder i.e. testwiki1.html, testwiki2.html etc...

I had just saved and tested if the TOC works as it should, it did. I started to create test content tiddlers with random toc and non-toc related tags. And then tried to create a new tiddler under the main TOC-tab and under that another tiddler.

like so: 

TOC

TEST

TEST-Content

At this point it would not work!

I opened an earlier version of the wiki and tried to do the same, it did not work there either.

I then proceeded to close Chrome and trying to create TOCs again to no avail. Then I restarted my machine and tried again. And it worked!!

This same thing has occured to me on two different machines, Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. Both using the latest version of Chrome.

I hope this helps someone in the future to not pull the hair out of their head while figuring out why their table of contents doesn't update as it should.

Hello Samppa

I had the same problem. I wanted to have a ToC as a footer below every tiddler, triggered by a conditional template

The footer looks like this:

<table style="width:100%">
<tr><th>T o C @@font-size:8pt;''[[(e)|$:/+PGA2015/admin/footerToC]]''@@</th></tr>
<tr>
<div class="tc-table-of-contents">
<<toc-selective-expandable '$(currentTiddler)$'!is[system]sort[title]>>
</div>
</tr>
</table>

Key is the    $(currentTiddler)$ which draw the tiddler title into the ToC

Hello,

I finally figured out what caused the table of contents not to function.

The title of the Tiddler needs to be exactly same same as the tag.

like so Tiddler:

ASDF
<<list-links "[tag[ASDF]]">>
