As you guessed, you should use the "raw" (unbracketed) value in the custom field, so that the output from <<forEachTiddler>> is correct. Then, in your LocationsViewTemplate, instead of the 'wikify' keyword in the view macro, use the 'link' keyword, like this: <span macro='view country link'></span> <span macro='view city link'></span> That will ensure that the field values are displayed as TiddlyLinks, regardless of whether or not they are wiki words, or have spaces. Another important issue: custom fields names should **always be lower case only** (e.g. "country", not "Country"). While it might *seem* that mixed case names work, it can cause problems for some functions and should be avoided. Also, as an optimization in <<forEachTiddler>>, because you are referencing fields in the "current" tiddler, you can replace this syntax: store.getValue(tiddler,"Country") with just: tiddler.fields["country"] which saves a bit of TWCore overhead processing. enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios HELP ME TO HELP YOU - MAKE A CONTRIBUTION TO MY "TIP JAR"... http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#Donations Professional TiddlyWiki Consulting Services...
