OK, with a TD instance 2 versions out-of-date already (0.0.13 vs 0.0.15), i decided to bite the bullet and upgrade it to most current version.
The Good News: it upgraded my out-of-date (v.5.1.16!) multi-files wiki to current 5.1.23. The Bad News: you guys are right, Mark S. & Strikke : installation of plugins from within TD, via Control Panel : Plugins: "Get More Plugins" button, no longer works; in fact one cannot even follow step 1 of the rather complicated instruction-set it throws up, i.e. > 1. Identify the plugins you want to install using the *Plugins* tab of > control panel <https://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2FControlPanel> (*don't* install the plugins from here, though). ... Because that tab does not even give a browsable list of plugins anymore; click on tab just returns: "The official plugin library is disabled when using the client-server configuration. Instead, plugins should be installed via the tiddlywiki.info file, as described here <https://tiddlywiki.com/#Installing%20a%20plugin%20from%20the%20plugin%20library>" (i.e. the step-by-step instructions that Mark references). I'd have to call this a bug in the process. Moreover: the upgrade to version 5.1.23 of the wiki didn't fix the tiddler Info tab problem; tho the view is updated, that tab i questioned above still says "References" instead of "Backlinks" (not that i care anymore about this, now that i know they are synonyms; am just sayin'.... :-) /walt On Sunday, February 21, 2021 at 5:55:27 PM UTC Mark S. wrote: > On Sunday, February 21, 2021 at 7:32:46 AM UTC-8 strikke...@gmail.com > wrote: > >> How do you intall plugins and themes then?
