Shadow Tiddlers
TiddlyWiki Community Wiki
(Redirected from Shadow Tiddler)
Many of TiddlyWiki's default configuration settings are stored in built-in "shadow" tiddlers. These are tiddlers that are "preloaded" with default contents.
A list of all shadow tiddlers is available through the sidebar's More > Shadowed tab (using the list macro).
Regular tiddlers take precedence over shadow tiddlers. Thus default contents can be modified or overridden by editing the respective shadow tiddler (which automatically creates a regular tiddler of the same name).
A shadow tiddler's default contents can be restored by deleting or renaming the respective regular tiddler.
