Hi Birthie, thanks for the response. I also discovered tagging a tiddler with $:/tags/TopLeftBar puts it in the TopLeftBar, which seems to do what I want most of the time. What do you think is the difference between transcluding the "header" tiddler directly through PageTemplate or indirectly through tagging with $:/tags/TopLeftBar?
