Hi:

I have a tiddlywiki with only the EditFieldPlugin and
TaggedTemplateTweakPlugin installed. I have a tiddler titled
personViewTemplate as follows:

|Prefix, First Name & Middle Name<br><<edit fname>>|Last Name &
Suffix<br><<edit lname>>|
|Title<br><<edit persontitle>>|
|Organization<br><<edit org>>|
|Desk Phone<br><<edit phone>>|Extension<br><<edit ext>>|
|Cell Phone<br><<edit cellphone>>|
|Email<br><<edit email>>|
|Notes<br><<edit notes 6>>|

This tiddler correctly displays a simple input form in view mode and
the EditFieldPlugin correctly asks for confirmation as text is entered
in the input boxes.

What is the proper syntax in a macro button to open this form as a
template in view mode ready to accept user data entry? This macro
opens a new tiddler in edit mode rather than view mode:

<<newTiddler
        label:"New Person"
        text:{{store.getTiddlerText("personViewTemplate")}}
>>

I thought this version would trigger the TaggedTemplateTweakPlugin:

<<newTiddler
        label:"New Person"
        tag:"person"
>>

Instead, it produces an empty new tiddler in edit mode which when
closed produces this raw text in view mode:

|Prefix, First Name & Middle Name
<>|Last Name & Suffix
<>| |Title
<>| |Organization
<>| |Desk Phone
<>|Extension
<>| |Cell Phone
<>| |Email
<>| |Notes
<>|

The above text in view mode seems to indicate that the
TaggedTemplateTweakPlugin is being called, however the text is not
accompanied by a tiddler command menu.

I hope this is an adequate explanation of my problem. I'm just trying
to open an input form ready for user input. However, I will have 3 or
4 different input forms and I'd like to use the
TaggedTemplateTweakPlugin to open the appropriate form base on a
tiddler's tag (tags such as: person, project, issue). I have looked at
UdoBorkowski's form and data plugins, but I would like to have this
work with custom fields rather than JSON data because I think the
custom fields will be easier to work with as my tiddlywiki grows.

Thanks, Keith Silva
