Hi Tobias It looks like the basic problem you're trying to solve is to be able to hide certain tags on certain tiddlers. In this case you're using fields like tags, and want fields to be able to use the same ordering functionality as tags.
You could try something like this: [list[GettingStarted]field:menu[main]] That returns all the tiddlers listed in the "list" field of getting started that have their "menu" field set to "main". > Now, what I'd ideally like to do is to tell the list macro where to get the ordering from Do you mean the <<list-links>> macro? One of the parameters is "filter"; you can construct any ordering you need.
