Rated 2.00/5.00 | Created 23 April 2009
Ben Gillies has created a pretty damn cool plugin which is great for users like myself who use TiddlyWiki as a blog. Up until now I have been quite lazy and without realising it have been missing out on one key feature of a blog - which is shortened posts. Most blogs allow you to see the X most recent posts, however to cope with potentially huge previous posts and allow a user to read a summarised version of the blog post before continuing on reading they provide a handy "Read more" button as soon as the post gets too long.

Ben's plugin works quite nicely. Just install his CollapseThisTiddler plugin and add this line to your ViewTemplate tiddler to initiate the macro.


I'm keeping an eye on Ben's work.. he seems to be the first user (at least that I know of) to be turning TiddlyWeb into a blogging platform. I am hoping one day I'll be able to follow his lead...

Thanks for reading this far. Did I bore you or interest you? Let me get better at doing the latter and focus more on working on the good stuff...
