This is not a full answer but have you tried datatiddler##entryname Rather than temptiddler!!entryname Regards Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

[tw5] Can a <$button> be used to create a data tiddler?
Tried searching the forum to no avail. Right now I have a button that populates fields. The fields needs are many and makes it clunky. Though I knew of data tiddlers it is only recently I realized there could be some potential usefulness. Here is section of my current button action. name.middle={{$:/temp/person!!name.middle}} name.family={{$:/temp/person!!name.family}} name.handle={{$:/temp/person!!name.handle}} date.birth={{$:/temp/person!!date.birth}} place.birth={{$:/temp/person!!place.birth}} date.baptism={{$:/temp/person!!date.baptism}} place.baptism={{$:/temp/person!!place.baptism}} date.death={{$:/temp/person!!date.death}} place.death={{$:/temp/person!!place.death}} date.burial={{$:/temp/person!!date.burial}} place.burial={{$:/temp/person!!place.burial}} cause.death={{$:/temp/person!!cause.death}} Setting the type to dictionary is not an issue. But is there a way to generate the output to populate data information in the text field? For instance "name.middle={{$:/temp/person!!name.middle}}" would populate in the text field as name.middle: ( value of ){{$:/temp/person!!name.middle}}? Index numbers would not work here not only do I need "date.birth" to know what I am looking at but also ( if export it ) for someone to know what they are looking at. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
