Display only latest tiddler with some tag
Pavlo Shchelokovskyy
I'm quite new to TiddlyWiki, but already fascinated by it. Right now
I'm trying to make a lab book from it using the journal functionality.
The question is how could I configure the DefaultTiddlers so that only
the latest in my journal entries will appear when TW is loaded? I can
display them all (with [tag[journal]sorted[-created]]) but I suspect
that with the lab book growing this will become too lengthy and slow
(and useless) to display at startup.
Thanks in advance,
Pavlo.

Make a backup of your valuable TW file :)
Make a new tiddler titled: DisplayDefaultTiddlersLimitedPlugin
Tag it: systemConfig
and copy the following lines into it.
/***
''Be aware!''
This function will @@overwrite@@ the displayDefaultTiddlers
function from TW core. This function is called at startup time,
once from the "restart" function. If you use any plugin, that calls
the restart or displayDefaultTiddlers function they will be
influenced.
***/
/*{{{*/
Story.prototype.displayDefaultTiddlers = function() {
var number = 2; //change this to any number of tiddlers you want to
display
var tids = store.filterTiddlers(store.getTiddlerText
("DefaultTiddlers"));
if (tids.length > number) tids.length = number;
this.displayTiddlers(null,tids);
}; // Story.proto ..
/*}}}*/
There are 6 lines of code between /*{{{*/ and /*}}}*/ goog.le will
wrap the lines. So take care.
There is a "var number = 2;" that should be changed to a number of
tiddlers you want to display at startup. I used 2 for testing.
Don't forget to tag it "systemConfig" and reload the TW.

Welcome to the group
If you are using forEachtiddlerPluign already (http://tiddlywiki.abego-
software.de/#ForEachTiddlerPlugin) you could write
<<forEachTiddler where 'tiddler.tags.contains("journal")'
sortBy
tiddler.created
descending
write
'(index < 1) ? "| [["+tiddler.title+"]] |\h\n|<<tiddler
[["+tiddler.title+"]]\>\> |\n" : ""'
>>
(you can use "modified" instead of "created" and "ascending" instead
of "descending")
and put a link to the tiddler in DefaultTiddlers...
A more sophisticated solution would be to use Yann Perrins NEWS plugin
(http://yann.perrin.googlepages.com/twkd.html#N.E.W.S) and change it
so it uses the tag "journal" instead of "blog"..
It's very nice because it opens the last modified tiddler tagged blog/
journal and creates two lists in the mainmenu - one for tiddlers not
yet visited from this browser and another for already visited
(archive)...
I think I will give it a go .. I will get back when I have a working
solution... untill then you can have a glimpse at my Danish TW which
uses it here: http://twgroup.tiddlyspot.com

Try this:
Create a tiddler [[SetDefaultTiddlers]], tagged with systemConfig,
containing this one line of code:
-----------------
config.shadowTiddlers["DefaultTiddlers"] = "[["+store.getTaggedTiddlers
("journal","modified").reverse()[0].title+"]]";
-----------------
Then, just *delete* the existing DefaultTiddlers. When you save-and-
reload, the above code will automatically re-write the *shadow*
definition of DefaultTiddlers so that it will then open the most
recently modified 'journal' tiddler.
enjoy,

- I like Erics solution better though :-)

"journal", which were modified since your last visit."
if there is none - it will use the normal DefaultTiddlers!!

(a simple MTC): import tiddlers tagged with N.E.W.S. and put the
tiddler NewsManager in the MainMenu like this <<tiddler NewsManager>>.

The next question would be how to revert to default behavior (just in
case..) :)
Pavlo.

> case..) :)
Just disable the one-line [[SetDefaultTiddlers]] plugin tiddler, by
either removing the 'systemConfig' tag, or adding the
'systemConfigDisable' tag. After you save-and-reload, the standard
default shadow value will once again be used.
Alternatively, you can leave the plugin enabled and simply create an
actual [[DefaultTiddlers]] tiddler containing a space-separated,
bracketed list of tiddler titles to open upon startup. Then, it won't
matter if the [[SetDefaultTiddlers]] plugin is still enabled, as the
shadow tiddler value will never be used if a real [[DefaultTiddlers]]
exists.

tiddlertitle: OpenToday
var title = new Date( );
title = title.formatString("[[DD MMM YYYY]]");
store.saveTiddler( "DefaultTiddlers", "DefaultTiddlers", title );
tag with systemConfig
It opens a tiddler with todays date, even if it hasn't been made yet..
