@Saq - thank you for confirming! Didn't realise these were generated on demand. That explains why it doesn't work with the static website.
@Diego - totally missed that previous message. Thank you! Yes this is exactly what I want. So, just to recapitulate where I'm at, I used a couple of solutions that more or less worked once exported as a static website: *1)* Old school iframe which works on static website but doesn't look great (see here <https://notes.nesslabs.com/about>, hover your mouse on "Other Minds") *2)* Transclude caption into "tooltip" (which unfortunately uses the default "title tooltip" from the browser so takes a long time to show up) *\define tv-wikilink-tooltip()* *<$transclude field="tooltip"><$transclude field="caption"/></$transclude>* *\end* *Here is a link to [[Title of Tiddler]] with a custom tooltip.* And I added a "caption" field to each Tiddler. Works once exported to static website. Pretty happy with this except that the tooltip takes a long time to appear. I much prefer the look and speed of the ones in Tobi Beer's plugin. --- *3)* Use Tobi Beer's plugin <http://tobibeer.github.io/tw5-plugins/#preview>, which transcludes the whole target article (see demo <https://ybalkind.github.io/tryingtiddlywiki/#How%20I%20use%20this%20blog>, maybe a bit over the top). Works great on TW itself but doesn't work (as Saq confirmed) when exported to a static website. So my question is... Do you think there's a way to implement #2 (display caption field in tooltip) with the look and speed of #3 (Tobi Beer's plugin)? Sorry for the rambling, and thanks so much for your help!
