I have upgraded for 5.1.7. to 5.1.8, and I am running into a problem.

Searched for "tabs" and then you get "tabs Macro" and "tabs Macro (Examples)"
On tiddlywiki.com the content shows nicely and you can try out the tabs.

On my version there is nothing to see. When in edit mode however all the code is there.
I am flabbergasted. Please anybody helping hands available.
Thanks in advance
Salut! Ed.

Update
Uh, oh, there is more trouble brewing. The tabs Macro is not looking the same as the one
on TiddlyWiki.com. E.g. the fat grey wordt caption is missing although in the code this
<<.field caption>> is there. And some more of that.
Tried a new upgrade an when I opened it it showed the upgrade wizard.
Never happened before.

I going to do a new upgrade and this time on the Mac and not a PC with Vista
Salut! Ed. 8-(( Sadly

Update 2
Did a new upgrade on the Mac. Sad result.
1. Did a search for "tabs"
2. Result: "tabsMacro (9 months old)"
3. Same search on TiddlyWiki.com. There is no such tiddler.
4. There I find after same search 2 other tiddlers: "tabs Macro (57 days ago)" and "tabs Macro (Examples) (57 days ago)"
It really beats me. Please anybody to the rescue?
Off to bed, it's 03:00 AM. 8-((
Salut! Edm.

Hi Ed,

Could you explain a bit more about what you're trying to do? As far as I understand it, upgrading will update the core but leave all your regular tiddlers as they were. The tiddler "tabs Macro" is part of the documentation and you would only have it in your wiki if you started with "full" instead of "empty" or if you've dragged it in manually etc. You don't need this tiddler to be able to use the tabs macro. The reason that <<.field caption>> isn't rendering is probably that .field is a macro defined in $:/editions/tw5.com/doc-macros for styling field titles in a standard manner for the documentation - it sounds like you don't have that in your wiki.

Regards,
Richard
