It's a bit convoluted because the tags need to be added with the tm-add-tag message after the new tiddler is created. This seems to work:
\define makenewtiddler() <$action-createtiddler $basetitle={{UseMeAsName}} $savetitle= "NewTiddlerName" /> <$fieldmangler tiddler={{NewTiddlerName}}><$action-sendmessage $message= "tm-add-tag" $param="""$(MyTag)$"""/></$fieldmangler> \end <$select tiddler="UseMeAsTag" default='HelloThere'> <$list filter='[tag[HelloThere]sort[title]]'> <option value=<<currentTiddler>>><$view field='title'/></option> </$list> </$select> <$edit-text tiddler="UseMeAsName" tag="input" size="20"/> <$vars MyTag={{UseMeAsTag}}> <$button actions=<<makenewtiddler>>>Make Tiddler</$button> </$vars> On Monday, July 16, 2018 at 6:47:59 AM UTC-7, Geoff Osterberg wrote: > > I'm trying to create tiddler that will act as a form for new tiddlers. > > I want to have an edit-widget that will pass on the title to a new > tiddler.
