Sooo, this is a strange case. What's happening with your macro call is that
the string "[[ tiddler_name ]]" is being transplanted directly into a chunk
of text which is then being interpreted as wikitext. And it's only *then*
that tiddlywiki recognizes it as a link. The parameters sum and src are
otherwise treated as plaintext since those parameters aren't specified as
being links OR references. And it wouldn't be possible to configure Relink
to view them as such since they're valid as either, or neither. I really
wish Relink were completely a "It just works" plugin, but this is one case
where you'll need to do something so Relink will recognize what to do.
1.
\define link-to-tiddler() [[ tiddler_name ]]
<$macrocall $name="details" sum=<<link-to-tiddler>> />
<!-- This works because Relink interprets the bodies of macros as wikitext,
and this will relink the link as expected. -->
2.
<$macrocall $name="details" src={{ tiddler_name }} />
<!-- this works by allowing the indirect reference to be processed before
being passed into the macro. Relink will recognize this form just fine and
relink as needed.
However, this doesn't work for your sum parameter from your example, since
it looks like you want the LINK to the tiddler to be passed, not the
contents. -->
I guess your full solution may be:
\define link-to-tiddler() [[ tiddler_name ]]
<$macrocall $name="details" sum=<<link-to-tiddler>> src={{ tiddler_name }}
/>
Hope this helps.
