That fixes one of the problems and now it works but it appears that the date would be constantly changing over time because the macro but not the generated date is getting transferred to the New Tiddler.
I'm trying to have the date macro run upon New Tiddler creation where the date, but not the macro itself, is contained within the New Tiddler. The example below does this: http://tiddlywiki.com/static/WidgetMessage%253A%2520tm-new-tiddler.html But I can't get the date generated when there is other text contained within the example. I was exploring using several lines to see if I could get that to work because I want to be able to place header text and footer text on the New Tiddler. I fixed the string wrapping problem like you suggested but now the macro itself gets transferred to the New Tiddler's content instead of the generated date. Anyone know how to get the now macro to run on New Tiddler creation when there is other text surrounding it? Specifically if that text contains transclusion content like my *{{PageFooter}}* section. I would like to know how to get the *now* macro to run immediately but not the PageFooter transclusion which needs to have transclusion happen later upon viewing. I want the footer to be dynamic but have the date generated just that one time.. Any one have a suggestion?
