If you use Tiddlyhost or a Feather Wiki nest, you'll never have to worry about saving your data again.
Installation #
To use the auto-save extension, you can do one of the following things:
- Go to your Wiki Settings and add

What it Does #
Once you add your extension code, you will not be able to see the results until you save your wiki and re-load the file. When it's saved and reloaded, this extension makes the Warbler build automatically save to the server whenever pages and settings are saved. Note that this extension will not work with the Wren build—you must be using either Tiddlyhost or some other Feather Wiki nest that hosts your wiki on a web server!
Previous Versions #
Starting with Version 1.8.0, extensions are now stored in paths that include the minor version number (i.e. extensions for version 1.8.0 are stored in extensions/v1.8.x/
) to indicate that they are incompatible with lower version numbers. The version of this extension compatible with versions of Feather Wiki below 1.8.0 can still be found at https://feather.wiki/extensions/auto-save.js
, but the old version will no longer receive updates.
