[TW5] How to disable automatic wikilinking?

[Christian de la Serna]

Hello,

I've been trying to search for ways to disable automatic wikilinking CamelCase words in TW5. Searched the group and found a macro but it does not seem to work for me. 

\define tw-wikilinks() no

Using TW 5.1.9.

Thanks,

The macro you used will only work in the tiddler, you put it in.

If you want to avoid all internal links except for links with square brackets, you can edit $:/core/modules/parsers/wikiparser/rules/wikilink.js. Open the tiddler and edit it deleting the content and removing the field module-type, save the tiddler and refresh your TiddlyWiki. If this is not what you are after, you will just have to delete that tiddler again.

Hi, 

Just open this tiddler $:/core/modules/parsers/wikiparser/rules/wikilink.js  in advances search: http://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2FAdvancedSearch   Shadows  tab

Edit it. .. There is a warning, that you'll overwrite a system tiddler. ... This is OK
If you mess something up. just delete this tiddler and the core default will be restored.

change the type field from : type: wikirule   to type: wikirule-disabled

If you want to restore the old behaviour, just delete this tiddler,  so the core will take over again.

hope this helps

Some time ago (5.1.5?) the various "tw-***" definitions were renamed to "tv-***" for variable, "tc-***" for CSS classes, "tm-***" for messages, etc.

In this instance, use "tv-wikilinks".

enjoy,

Hi Christian,

If you want to disable it for just one tiddler, then insert this code into the first line.

\rules except wikilink

Note: it is not necessary to delete the tiddler content.  Just change the module-type to any unrecognized value (e.g., blank or, as Mario suggested, "wikirule-disabled") and it will prevent that code from being loaded.

Thanks this worked perfectly! And thank you everyone for helping. 

Is there a way to make this into a global macro? Just curious...

 \rules except wikilink

Good question :)
I did create a feature request at github: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/1875   but it's not doable out of the box.

Disabling the core function may be a workaround, till we have something better. See my first post.

Mario's fix worked for me in previous versions of TiddlyWiki but it doesn't seem to work anymore in version 5.1.9.

What did work now is opening up $:/core/modules/parsers/wikiparser/rules/wikilink.js and replacing this block of code:

    return [{
        type: "link",
        attributes: {
            to: {type: "string", value: linkText}
        },
        children: [{
            type: "text",
            text: linkText
        }]
    }];

with this:

    return [{type: "text", text: linkText}];

Make sure to make a backup copy of your wiki first as making this change incorrectly can break the wiki. You may need to save and reload the wiki before the changes take effect.
