So 1 possibility (just an idea) would be to add a prefix. eg: pr/01/Research We call this format with / ... "namespace". ... So pr/01/Research is a tiddler in the namespace: pr/01/ If you create a tiddler *title*: pr/01/Resaarch Add a field named: *caption* value: Research If you create a tiddler *title*: pr/02/Resaarch Add a field named: *caption* value: Research Create a new tiddler *title*: pr/01 *caption*: <you name it> content for pr/01 <<list-links filter:"[prefix[pr/01/]]">> <<list-links filter:"[prefix<currentTiddler>]-[all[current]]">> <$macrocall $name=tree prefix="pr/"/> - The first line creates a list of all tiddlers prefixed with pr/01/ where the name pr/01 is hardcoded. - The second line creates the same list, but uses the tiddler titles as prefix value. - The third macro call, calls the tree macro <https://tiddlywiki.com/#tree%20Macro%20(Examples):%5B%5Btree%20Macro%20(Examples)%5D%5D%20%5B%5Btree%20Macro%5D%5D>, which is part of the core. ... Which gives a nice overview basically for free. As mentioned. This is only 1 possibility to deal with unique tiddler titles. ... We use the *caption *field here. Also have a closer look at: TaskManagementDraggable <https://tiddlywiki.com/#TaskManagementExample%20(Draggable)>. have fun! mario PS: more info about fields <https://tiddlywiki.com/#TiddlerFields>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
