File Save & Backup Utility For TiddlyWiki

V0.3.15-beta

4 years ago

IMPORTANT - BACKUP your files and the BACKUP-FOLDER!!!

This is the final version prior to the V0.4.0 update. It can be used to test the browser "native" update mechanism.

If this AddOn is installed and "auto-update" is enabled, the "new" indicator should be activated.

Installation

  • Click first "Assets" link

What's New

  • The plugin, if downloaded in the background, will only be installed and activated at browser restart
  • Memory leak fixed for frequently saved huge TWs
  • File-Backups AddOn only uses 1 icon - The browser "diamond" icon
  • The "diamond" icon gets a "blue" !-indicator
    • The drop-down will show eg: new version ;)
  • An "out of order" backup is created if a TiddlyWiki is saved for the first time
    • Only different names are detected.
    • If the AddOn is uninstalled and installed again the first save will create an "out of order" backup per new name.
  • Backups are activated by default if the AddOn is installed
  • Default number of backups was increased from 6 to 7
  • The plugin Options setting site was updated
  • AddOn should work for "FireFox for Android"
    • At least it does for me ;)
