Folks

Quick question is it possible to have a particular tiddler ALWAYS be at the top? I.E. it is always the first one, any new ones get added BELow it?

I've done some googling and couldn't find the magic combo of keywords to unlock it...

Thanks
Simon

If you add the tag "$:/tags/AboveStory" a tiddler, it will always be displayed at the top.  However, this only displays the tiddler's text content, without the tiddler frame, title, subtitle, or toolbar.  To show the complete tiddler display, you can do the following:

1) Let's assume the tiddler you want to "pin" at the top is called "MyStuff".
2) Don't tag "MyStuff" with $:/tags/AboveStory.
3) Instead, create another tiddler (e.g., "StickyTiddler") and tag it with $:/tags/AboveStory.
3) Then, in that tiddler's text field, enter:
{{MyStuff||$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate}}

The above method is called "Transclusion with Templates" (see https://tiddlywiki.com/#Transclusion%20with%20Templates)

enjoy,
