It was the story bit - just tested it, and that fixed it. I did have tagS vs tag, that was just a typo here.
So here's my step by step to create a custom global shortcut, where you don't need a button, or to be in a textarea, or anything. Just hit your shortcut at anytime, and voila. Obviously, your action can be changed easily to whatever you need. 1. Create tiddler named $:/config/ShortcutInfo/<<newShortcut>> 2. Give a description in textarea, if you want 3. Go to Control Panel, then Keyboard Shortcuts 4. Select your new shortcut name, and give it a unique shortcut (just type the shortcut you want, for example alt+M) 5. Create a new tiddler tagged $:/tags/Keyboard/Shortcut <#%24%3A%2Ftags%2FKeyboard%2FShortcut> 6. Create a new field "key", which value = your shortcut (e.g. "alt+M") 7. In the textarea, add your action: <$navigator story="$:/StoryList" > <$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" $param="meaningTemplate" title="This is newly created tiddler" tags="OneTag [[Another Tag]]" text=<<now "Today is DDth, MMM YYYY">> /> </$navigator> On Sat, Aug 3, 2019 at 1:53 PM 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki < [email protected]> wrote: > I think you do need to wrap it with a minimum of > > <$navigator story="$:/StoryList" > > ... > </$navigator> > > In your original post, you said $:/tag/KeyboardShortcut, but it should be > $:/tags/KeyboardShortcut > > I'm thinking that the error you're getting suggests something wrong in > your template.
