Hi Jonnan and Eric I came up with an answer - then I saw Eric had replied already. My example gives you two different macros. First one is pretty simple as all it does is to create a "pretty link" which points to an url wich is constructed from an URL and a word (or several)
Second macro takes the first macro and injects the prefix url for a google search and <<currentTiddler>> as the search item/subject. A solution for inputting current tiddler's title into an existing macro seems to be that you "spell out" the macrocall widget to be able to use <<currentTiddler>> - <<<< ... >>>> is a no go... Ps:Eric's or my macro will work in other tiddlers if you tag the tiddler (with the macro definition) with: $:/tags/Macro \define gs(url,item) [[$item$|$url$$item$]] \end \define gsl() <$macrocall $name="gs" url="https://www.google.com/search?q="; item=<<currentTiddler>>/> \end Search for <<gs "https://www.google.com/search?q="; "dolphin">> Search for this tiddlers title <<gsl>> Cheers Måns Mårtensson Den mandag den 22. juni 2015 kl. 19.13.05 UTC+2 skrev Jonnan: > > I'm probably missing something obvious here. > > Okay - I want to autocreate a link to google the Wiki subject - e.g. > https://www.google.com/search?q={{!!title}} where the Title is 'XCOM - > Enemy Unknown', thus generating > https://www.google.com/search?q=XCOM%20-%20Enemy%20Unknown > > Despite attempts with transclusion and a few tricks with escaped > characters et al, I'm not coming up with a way to do this within a URL.
