I'm confused a bit about which parts go where. It might help if you exported your sample data and tiddlers.
But I can point out that this: [<target>list[!!parent]] is the same as [list[!!parent]] Because the list operator is a generator, and does not use prior operators in the filter as an input. So I think you want something equivalent to : [list[<target>!!parent]] This of course doesn't work. So you would need to use a macro or a wikify widget to put the <target> and the !!parent together. Possibly a macro like \define tarpar() """$(target)$!!parent""" used in a filter like [list<tarpar>] Good luck! -- Mark On Tuesday, December 11, 2018 at 9:43:45 AM UTC-8, Tristan wrote: > > Hey guys, > > I have another issue regarding filters in Tiddlers. > > Setup: Tiddler A transcludes tiddler B inside scope of a vars widget > creating a variable "target" which holds another tiddlers name.
