Hi Alex The newJournal macro does pretty much what I did with the newTiddler macro. Both create a new tiddler in edit mode. However, what I want is for the new tiddler to be created from a form, have certain tags, and be shown in view mode. The newTiddlerWithForm macro does this but unfortunately does not have a way of specifying tags during the tiddler creation.
