Frequently Asked Questions

• I can't find where to importing/exporting wiki list data.

  The wiki list importing/exporting are hidden features since it's seldom used.

  • To import: Copy data.json to INTERNAL/Android/data/top.donmor.tiddloid/files/ before running for the first time. If you have previously run the program, clear the data in Settings/Apps and copy the file.
  • To export: Install the plugin provided along with the apk, then Click Export Data in Control Panel/Appearance/Tiddloid Tweaks. A data.json will be generated under INTERNAL/Android/data/top.donmor.tiddloid/files/.

• How to apply UI tweaks?

  Install the plugin provided along with the apk and:

  • Apply theme color: Check Control Panel/Appearance/Tiddloid Tweaks/Apply theme color to system bars.
  • Hide toolbar: Check Control Panel/Appearance/Tiddloid Tweaks/Hide toolbar on loading complete.
  • Custom actions: to create a config tiddler and edit it following the instructions.

• The file imported from Google Drive won't sync with other devices.

  Try marking the file for "offline access" in Google Drive app. (Thanks to @tedric42's feedback)

• I encountered a Javascript error followed by a white screen in newly created files.

  Check your Android version. TiddlyWiki 5.1.23 has critical bugs on Android 5.1 and below (WebView 39). A solution is to get a new version that had this bug fixed, or a previous version without this bug.

• My wiki list change its order randomly every time.

  Check your Android version. One of the functions in the JSON library behaves differently below 4.4, causing random wiki list order bug on KitKat devices. We recommend you to use Tiddloid on Oreo (8.0) and above to enable all of its features.

• There are lags if WebDAV Wikis added.

  Sometimes a slow connection to your server blocks the application. Sorry :(

• I upgraded from 1.4 and all of my TiddlyWikis added before no longer to work.

  Check if your system revoked local storage accessing permissions. Local (Legacy) mode (which directly accesses local files) disabled on new installations by default. To enable it, Open "About Tiddloid" and long-press the "OK" button.

• I still want to add Local (Legacy) wikis.

  Install a file manager designed for old versions of Android that opening files by passing file://URIs, open a HTML file, and choose Add to Tiddloid.

• Why there's a Tiddloid Lite? What's the difference between the two versions?

  In the past 1.x days, Tiddloid use legacy file:// ways to handle files, causing the lack of access to cloud medias. Later I made another branch that implements Android's SAF (i.e. Storage Access Framework), and finally it became a lightweight version. Now since Tiddloid 2.0 has been refactored to use SAF, there'll be no more functional updates for Tiddloid Lite, only bug fixes will be applied, and it'll remain LITE.

  Here's the difference between different versions:

  Feature	Tiddloid 1.x	Tiddloid 2.0 and above	Tiddloid Lite
  File API	Java File API	Android Storage Access Framework and also Java File API	Android Storage Access Framework
  Backup system	Yes	Yes	No
  Search-and-Fork system	Yes	No (Instead it receives shared URLs from browsers and show options to save the page)	No
  Downloader	Yes	No	No
  Direct access to files in the same folder	Yes	Partial (Legacy, or TiddlyWiki folders by caching all files)	No
  Cloud Service	No	Yes (via SAF)	Yes (via SAF)
  WebDAV client	No	Yes	No
  Template	Download on first startup	Download on creating new wiki, and cached in case it is unable to access the Internet	Download on creating new wiki
  Compatibility	Supports most of Android versions and most of TiddlyWikis	Supports latest Android versions best and supports most of TiddlyWikis	Supports latest Android versions best and supports most of TW5
  Recommended Android version	Android 4.4 ~ 9.0	Android 4.4 and above, best for 8.0 and above	Android 4.4 and above, best for 8.0 and above
