Hi Saq,

First, thanks so much for your help!

Yes, I have modified *static.tiddler.html* - it looks like this 
<https://github.com/anthilemoon/tw-experiments/blob/master/%24__ness_labs_template_static-view-template.tid>
 
in my setup — and it looks like your approach is working! Thank you! Will 
keep on tweaking, but if you're curious you can see here 
<https://github.com/anthilemoon/tw-experiments> the files where I did the 
regex edits. (following these instructions 
<https://www.didaxy.com/exporting-static-sites-from-tiddlywiki-part-5>)

Many thanks!
