Let's suppose the containing tiddler is named "MyForm". Then the value of
<<temp>>, as defined in the macro, will be *$:/temp/input/MyForm*.
However, once you use <$tiddler tiddler=<<temp>>> to surround the $button
code, the value of <<temp>> *within* the $button code will be
*$:/temp/input/$:temp/input/MyForm*, so the $action-deletetiddler refers to
the wrong tiddler title and does nothing.
The solution is to move the <$tiddler tiddler=<<temp>>> so it only affects
the $action-setfield. Here's a button definition that will work as you
intend:
<$button> <$view tiddler=<<temp>> field="label">join tiddlers</$view>
<$tiddler tiddler=<<temp>>>
<$action-setfield $tiddler={{!!target}} text={{{
[tag{!!fromtag}get[text]join[]] }}} tags={{!!targettag}} />
</$tiddler>
<$action-deletetiddler $tiddler=<<temp>> />
</$button>
Notes:
* The $view widget uses both tiddler=... and field=... to show the correct
label text without being inside the <$tiddler tiddler=<<temp>>>
* The $action-setfield is still surrounded by the $tiddler widget, so that
the field references, {{!!target}}, {!!fromtag} and {{!!targettag}} still
get their values from the temp tiddler
* However, the $action-deletetiddler is no longer within the $tiddler
widget, so the <<temp>> value referenced there uses the original
$(currentTiddler)$ value (i.e., "MyForm") to construct the correct temp
tiddler name
* Also note that the parameter for $action-deletetiddler is $tiddler=...
not tiddler=...
