Newtiddler Widget ($:/plugins/skeeve/newtiddler): Doesn't navigate to

[Surya]

Hello everybody,


I imported the $:/plugins/skeeve/newtiddler, to be able to have a button for building automatically a new tiddler by template and add automatically some tags to the new tiddler.

Everything works fine, except that, when the new tiddler is created, it doesn't navigate to and doesn't open it in edit mode.

In a skeleton I wrote:
<$set name="tag1" value="[[Tag1]] [[Tag2]]"><$newtiddler title="Newtiddler" skeleton="TemplateExample" edit="yes">+Z</$newtiddler></$set>

Clicking on the "+Z"-Button builds a tiddler called "Newtiddler" with everything in it (formatted text and so on) what the "TemplateExample" has and adds Tag1 and Tag2 to it.
But, as I said, it doesn't open it in edit-mode and doesn't navigate to it. I have to got to the recent-tab and open it from there.

Hackable? Or did I something wrong?

Thanks for your help,
Surya

Do you have a link? I remember this plugin circulating in several variations.

I get it, you are using the old version without editing it. http://tiddlystuff.tiddlyspot.com/#Newtiddler%20Widget

Skeeves stuff is getting old, and was written before there were new-tiddler tools in the core. Consider using https://tiddlywiki.com/#WidgetMessage%3A%20tm-new-tiddler .

You are totally right, Mark.

It was mostly created for us to create tiddlers from template, silently and without opening i edit mode.

I cannot bring it to work with both:
Putting the formatted text from the template into the new tiddler AND add some tags to it.

With

<$button message="tm-new-tiddler" param="TaskTemplate">New Task</$button>
works fine, adds the formatted text to the new tiddler.

With

<$button> <$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title="This is newly created tiddler" tags="OneTag [[Another Tag]]" text=<<now "Today is DDth, MMM YYYY">>/> New Tiddler </$button>
Works fine too, creates a new tiddler with the title "This is newly created tiddler", with the tags "OneTag" & "Another Tag" and the text "Today is 11.02.2018".

But I couldn't find out how to combine them...

[Mark S.]

In what manner do you want them combined? The 2nd method seems to give most everything you want. If you want to pull the tags from somewhere else then you could use:

<$button> <$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title="This is newly created tiddler" tags={{MyTemplate!!tags}}  text=<<now "Today is DDth, MMM YYYY">>/> New Tiddler </$button>

Hi,

I'd like to automatically create a new tiddler with the content (formatted text) of another tiddler called for example "Template" and added tags (for example "Tag1" & "Tag2").
The title is not so important.

Writing the text into the 2. method doesn't bring the wanted result, because there are <div style, transclusions and other commandos in it.

Possible?


The skeeve-plugin does it, but only not navigating to & not opening it in edit-mode.

Don't understand what you mean here. You should be able to use text={{TemplateTiddler!!text}} to bring in whatever is in your template tiddler.

Hello Mark,

thanks !!

With that I get what I want :-)

How should I have known that?? I didn't found anywhere written something like this, sorry.

However, thanks!

You're right. It's poorly documented. I just looked at the example and ... guessed. ;-)
