Ed,
I see that the list has a "variable=nul" this means each tiddler title is
presented in the variable
<<null>>
Yet the invocation of the edit button is to the current tiddler
{{||$:/core/ui/Buttons/edit}}
So assuming all else is working remove the variable=nul
\define optional-edit()
<$list filter="[{$:/config/edit-mode}match[yes]]">
{{||$:/core/ui/Buttons/edit}}
</$list>
\end
Regards
Tony
