v1.2.0 – HTML formatting, pair note type, and more

This release contains a grab-bag of new features and a couple of bugfixes. You should update both your TiddlyWiki plugin and your Anki plugin.

Edit 2020-09-30 12:00:00 UTC: The version number on the TiddlyWiki plugin available on the project website was incorrect, leading to installation difficulties for some. This has now been corrected. See #23 for details.

New features

• #3, #13: Most HTML formatting is now preserved when importing into Anki. In particular, external image links can now be synced successfully to Anki notes (syncing embedded images into Anki's media folder is planned for the future – see #20). Internal links are converted to plain text when importing, as they don't work outside the context of TiddlyWiki and usually aren't too helpful on the Anki card anyway.
  • If you run into formatting that doesn't display properly in Anki and believe it's TiddlyRemember's fault, please create an issue. I didn't find any issues, but I obviously haven't been able to test every kind of HTML someone might conceivably try.
• #16: A “pair” note type for creating two-sided flashcards is now available. It works exactly like rememberq except for generating a reversed card, and is called rememberp. Read more in the docs.
• #2: Added option to prefix all unique IDs in a wiki with a constant string, to reduce the chance of ID collisions between multiple users sharing content. See Unique ID in the docs for details.
• Added keyboard shortcuts Alt-R and Alt-Shift-R in TiddlyWiki for inserting the rememberq and remembercz snippets, respectively. The shortcuts can be customized in the standard keyboard-shortcuts tab in the control panel.

Bugs fixed

• #17: If one or more inline-mode remembercz's were used in a tiddler without any block remembercz or rememberq notes, TiddlyRemember would not notice the notes.
• #21: The rendering of a TiddlyRemember note's ID in TiddlyWiki could cause succeeding paragraphs to wrap oddly when it appeared there was sufficient space for the paragraph text to continue underneath the ID.

Internal improvements

• Create automated test suite. Does not cover some more complex scenarios, but at least verifies basic functionality isn't completely broken and provides a platform for future expansion as issues are uncovered and new functionality is added.
• Minor refactoring to support automated testing.
• Set up pylint and various other linter/check utilities.

v1.1.1 – Reference field bugfix

A bug was introduced in v1.0.1 (while trying to fix another bug!) where the Reference field was URL-encoded temporarily for serialization purposes and never got decoded before getting plugged into Anki cards. This meant if you had much of anything in your tiddler titles outside of strict Latin letters and numbers, the field would be filled with garbage. This release fixes that bug.

The TiddlyWiki plugin is unchanged, so you only need to update your Anki plugin for this release.

v1.1.0 – Add support for hard references

The main purpose of this release is to add support for hard references, which make it easy to do nifty things like automatically generating questions from the contents of other tiddlers, without sacrificing the ability to have a correct link to the source of the information in Anki. See Soft and hard references in the documentation for details on how this works.

Additionally, a bug was fixed that prevented notes from being deleted correctly in Anki 2.1.28 and up.

You can grab a copy of the new plugin from its page in the documentation wiki. Don't forget to update the Anki add-on too; at least 2.1.28 is required for this version.

v1.0.0 – First public release

This is the first non-alpha release of TiddlyRemember. It should be fully usable now!
