In that case you are making things much more complicated than it needs to
be. There shouldn't be any reason for you to directly edit the html file.
In fact that is generally a bad idea unless you know exactly what you are
doing.
Here is one simple way to make what you want:
Create a tiddler called 'Set Username', give it the tag
'$:/tags/TopLeftBar' and the text:
<div>User Name: <$edit-text tiddler='$:/state/User Name' field='name'/>
</div>
That will place a text input box in the upper left corner of the screen for
the username. You can style this the same way you would any html element.
If you want to move it somewhere else you can use the tag
'$:/tags/PageTemplate' instead and use css to style the div element and
move it wherever you want.
Then anywhere you put {{$:/state/User Name!!name}} it will display what is
entered into the box instead.
The way to automatically add the signature like you asked depends on how
you make the email tiddlers. The best way would probably be to give the
tiddlers that have the emails in them a tag and then use a conditional view
template (
https://tobibeer.github.io/tb5/#Conditional%20ViewTemplate%20Section). That
site also has a lot of other useful reference information. I also have a
site I made with reference things here http://inmysocks.tiddlyspot.com/
