Thanks again, but I already found this thread and it doesn't help. It creates new Tiddlers from a button which I can already do. I want to be able to change the text in a new Tiddler that is created by clicking a link in text, no buttons required. So if I type [New Tiddler Link]] and click that in the Wiki a new Tiddler with that name is created. That is the kind of Tiddler I want to change. The button created ones don't seem to affect a Tiddler created like this.
