Saq, I've installed this plugin in my node.js TW. I can see the additional check boxes on the import tiddler and there is an additional 'Save as external file' button on my tiddlers. Unfortunately, when I drag / drop images or copy / paste images an external file is not created nor is the _canonical_uri field set. Instead it seems to create a embedded image just as it did before. Are there any additional setup or workflow changes I need to do in order to use this plugin to add images as external files?
