Hi everyone,

I don't quite understand in what sense this would be beneficial over
the way things currently work.

Why bloating your template with input fields in order to enter a title
and then hit "new" as opposed to hitting new and then entering a title
while also being able to input contents and tags? Is it that you just
want to create an empty tiddler called xyz without further editiing it
right away? ...that would indeed save an extra step, but add another
if you actually did want to enter some content and tags, as you'd have
at least one more additional click to open the tiddler in edit-mode.

Besides, as Anthony suggested, that functionality is already present
in GotoPlugin ...which is my default for searching tiddler titles and
content for all wiki's that I create.

Tobias.

That should even be default IMO. Saves an extra step of work and just
makes more sense.

Further one.

I followed all the steps Eric said. It worked. But the input box
displayed a word 'undefined' in it.
I'd like to change it to the date of today as the default value. So I
add one line in 'SystemTweak':

config.options.txtNewTiddlerName = <>;

This cause an error when reload my TW: SyntaxError: illegal XML
character

Any ideas?

Of course you could use Erics great GotoPlugin.

http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#GotoPlugin

If there is no matching tiddler is found you just hit enter and it creates
the tiddler. This will not use any parameters otherwise possible in a custom
new tiddler but, if your tiddlers are defined more by how they are tagged
than what they contain you can use
http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#TaggedTemplateTweakto
control the "look" of different tiddlers by tag.

Eric,

I wonder if in GoTo Plugin using the filter
eg;
<>

Any Tiddler created this way could be automatically tagged by the filter eg
above "plugininfo"

This makes the GoTo plugin a smart "New Tiddler" giving the users the
ability to avoid duplicates and see similar names first.

eg;
<>

Would allow you to search the titles of all reference tiddlers, optionaly
search all tiddlers for research in the content or create a tiddlers tagged
reference.

This *can* be done.


1) create an input field using:
   <>
The *name* of the option is arbitrary.  The value entered into the
input field is stored in
   config.options.txtNewTiddlerName

2) create the desired newTiddler macro:
   <>
Note use of the "title:... *evaluated* parameter.  This retrieves the
value stored by the <> macro and uses it as the value for the
new tiddler.

HOWEVER

The <> macro parameters are evaluated when the macro is
initially *rendered*, not when the resulting command link is clicked
upon.  Thus, by the time you enter the desired new tiddler title into
the input field, the value of the title:{{...}} parameter has already
been set.

Fortunately, I've written a plugin that enables *re-calculation* of
the macro parameters whenever you CLICK on the rendered command link:
   http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ClickifyPlugin
To use, simply change
   <>
to
   <>
