Hi Richard, Thanks for taking a look at this.
Lets say I have a list of animals which are each tagged according to their class, so "mammal", "bird", "insect" etc. and then another tag to define the no. of legs. (OK, so I'm not a taxonomist!) So human would be tagged with "animal", "mammal" and "2 legs" if I use <$list filter="[tag[animal]tags[]sort[title]]"> <$transclude tiddler="$:/core/ui/TagTemplate"/> </$list> it will display all the tags associated with a particular animal, so "animal", "fish", "reptile", "8 legs" etc. are all displayed as tag pills and clicking on each will show the names of the animals contained in that category. What I'd like to do is separate the list of tag pills, so for instance, one list would show the class of animal and the other the number of legs. I haven't done a mock up of this so I do hope this is an accurate translation of my use case and that it also makes sense. As I mentioned, I can subtract the individual tags of the category from the expression like so: <$list filter="[tag[animal]!tag[insect]tags[]sort[title]]"> <$transclude tiddler="$:/core/ui/TagTemplate"/> </$list> but wondered if I could do it by excluding a field value which is assigned to one of the categories. >From what you've said I understand why my original idea doesn't work. Could you explain the nested idea and particularly how this is generally used <$list filter="[is[current][tag1]]"> Thanks, Jon On Wednesday, 8 April 2015 23:09:26 UTC+1, RichardWilliamSmith wrote: > > Hi Jon, > > I don't quite understand what you're trying to do.... you just want one > list and you want it to contain the tagpill for 'tag1' once? > > Do you only want it to appear once or once for each tiddler that has it > (but doesn't have the other tags?) - do you want to list the tiddlers or > just the tagpill?
