There's a button that lets you "retain story ordering" in a new Wiki.  I can't find documentation as to what that means anywhere.  The effect of it is to put make the default tiddlers "[list[$:/StoryList]]" which I assume means that the default stories are defined by the list attribute of a tiddler named $:/StoryList but I'm not sure what the intended effect is there?

It means that on reload of the wiki, you'll get the same tiddlers showing as when you last saved the wiki.

Ed,

The key here is its the "default tiddlers" setting. [list[$:/StoryList]] list says open the tiddlers named in the list field of the system tiddler $:/StoryList which is updated when you open and close tiddlers. 

Personally I use `Home [list[$:/StoryList]]` so my Home tiddler also open on reload whether it were open or not when I left the wiki.

Regards
Tony
