Without seeing your work, it's hard to know what's going on. This for
instance, works:
\define maketid()
<$button>
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title="$(newdescription)$"
tags="OneTag [[Another Tag]]" text=<<now "Today is DDth, MMM YYYY">>/>
New Tiddler
</$button>
\end
<$vars newdescription={{stateTidler!!description}}>
<<maketid>>
</$vars>
Good luck,
Mark
