@Tobias or anyone who knows

Is it possible to make LinkifyPlugin[1] automatically not create links
to the very current tiddler? I would suggest this is default actually
as the current behaviour makes little sense.

As stated before: thank you for an extremely interesting plugin. It
touches the very core ideas of the whole http purpose.

I guess you mean auto-linking the titles of existing tiddlers, right?
I thought I had that fixed / implemented already... I guess I haven't ...or rather I forgot about that ;-)

Will take a look.

No, wait, what I mean is that when you're in a specific tiddler, say
TiddlerA, then it is a bit of an overkill that if I mention TiddlerA
in the text it gets linkified. (There's no point in clikingt it as I'm
already in that very tiddler).

The general auto-linking titles to existing tiddlers is GREAT (as long
as it is easy to disable on demand). This is really what weaves things
automatically.

Thanx Tobias!

Hi twgrp,

Ah, of course, thanks for the clarification... was too late yesterday ;-)
That should be a rather simple addition / option.

Will do... if it nags you.

On the other hand, this really is the behaviour of standard links, too.
For example, you could transclude a section or slice of this tiddler purposefully linking to it.

So, if I add this, it must be that when transcluded the title in-fact is linkified as the outmost tiddler is a different one.
That should be a simple jQuery traversal.

And now it's late here so I'm not sure I get this right, but anyway:

The point I'm making is from a pure user perspective; Such links
simply "refocuses" what is already in focus which serves absolutely no
purpose and is only distracting. While this of course can be the
behaviour of standard links too, I guess the difference lies in that
standard links are put there manually and thus for a purpose. (I hope
those two sentences don't come off as arrogant. I'm just trying to
clarify.)

Again, thank you Tobias

difficulty replying.)

Hi Mat,

Amongst other things, I finally took the moment to implement non-linkification for the current tiddler...


Although turned off in the TiddlyWiki above, this is now the default behaviour.

Cheers, Tobias
