Dropbox sync

[Terry]

Is it possible to sync the contents on my TiddlyWiki with Dropbox -
this would be useful as Ipad version just been released so it would be
nice to share the content across devices.

Of course, you can always use Dropbox with TW classic to just sync your full TW file around as a whole, and it's not too bad to diff/merge if updates happen in two locations between syncs.

There has been some additional experimentation in coding TW features specifically for Dropbox itself - see this thread, especially Jeremy's comments about possible future developments to enable TW read/writing individual tiddlers as text files out in the filesystem, (which should be much further along by now?)

In the meantime, check out Eric's import and export tiddlers, which support CSV storage and the MatchTags plugin to allow for boolean selects based on tags.

Hope this helps. . .

You may be interested in these two iPad apps that give you a way to
use TiddlyWiki in your DropBox:

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/twedit/id409607956?mt=8
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tiddlynotes/id465930290?mt=8

Otherwise, as Hans says, you can straightforwardly get a read-only
view of TiddlyWiki files in your DropBox.

TiddlyWiki5 will indeed soon give a lot more flexibility in terms of
letting you store tiddlers as individual files in your dropbox, but
it's not yet in a usable state for end users.

Best wishes
