As you've noted, an event is linked to a tiddler using "EventList: description text" as the title. This is so that if the same description is used in separate EventLists, they don't link to the same tiddler. This way, if I have two EventLists, "Bob's Events" and "Jim's Events", where each contains an event like: "....MMDD;My Birthday", they will produce separate links to "Bob Event's: My Birthday" and "Jim Event's: My Birthday". Fortunately, there is already a way to override this default handling: *you can provide a link to specific tiddler title by adding "|TiddlerTitle" following the description text* Thus, if you enter the following into "Born on this Day": ....MMDD;Frances Hamilton Arnold (1956-)|Frances Hamilton Arnold (1956-) it will always link to "Frances Hamilton Arnold (1956-)", regardless of the name of the EventList in which it is defined. The event will still show the EventList title in the Calendar's date popup, but will use the specified title for the link. For a generated EventList, you could write: <$list filter="[has[birth-date]]"> <$view field="birth-date" format="date" template="....0MM0DD" />;< <currentTiddler>>;<<currentTiddler>><br> </$list> Note that there is one exception to the automatic EventList prefix handling: Events listed in TiddlyTools/Time/Events (the default EventList), do NOT add the prefix. Thus, in that tiddler, if you enter: ...0202;Ground Hog Day it will just link to a tiddler named "Ground Hog Day" rather than "TiddlyTools/Time/Events: Ground Hog Day" enjoy, -e -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
