Hi, yes this is absolutely expected behaviour and a problem that pops up in this group from time to time.
Tiddlywiki only recognizes hard links - everytime you use [[Link]] directly in the wikitext mostly - as references. Everything else - links coming from macros, variables, transclusions, etc. - is a so called soft link and not recognized. As for a solution: What would be your actual use case? There is no universial tiddlywiki recognizes soft links now solution, but maybe there can still be done something if it is clearer what you are trying to achieve. Although one thing I can answer now is that from most approaches I have seen the item that would reference tiddler 1 would still be the tiddler you defined the macro in - so in your case tiddler 2 - not the macro itself. Kind Regards, Felicia.
