Jed:
I came across this post while searching for a solution to my current
situation.
I have a TW5 wiki that contains my book collection. I have tiddlers for
each author, and tiddlers for each book by that author. I have used the toc
macro: toc-selective-expandable to create my nested listing. What I am
wanting to do is add a checkbox to each book in my list, so that when I
have completed reading it I can check it off,
give it a status of "Read" and strike through the title.
Your code gave me a start but since I am not a programmer I do not
understand how to get a checkbox next to each book title. This code only
places a checkbox next to
the authors name.
Example of what I am trying to achieve:
> Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child
[ ] The Relic
[ ] Riptide
> James Rollins
[ ] Ice Hunt
[ ] Excavation
What I have today:
[ ] > Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child
The Relic
Riptide
[ ] > James Rollins
Ice Hunt
Excavation
How would your code be modified to do what I want?
Thank you in advance for your time.
Charles
