Thanks for the explanation. I was wondering what had broken with one of my
projects but didn't have the time to troubleshoot. This note saved me a
great deal of head-scratching.
In this case, Mervin was using it in the context of a macro call. I can see
how this can be worked around using <$macrocall name=<<variable>>/> in
place of the <<>> syntax.
However, in my case, I was using it in a transclusion template like
{{$(variable)$||some_custom_tag_pill_tiddler}}. In looking at the
instructions for the full TranscludeWidget, I can do <$transclude
tiddler=<<variable>> field="title"/> but is there a way to specify the
template? I was able to workaround things by making a macro like you
indicated containing the above {{||}} transclusion template but am I
missing something in that the full transcludeWidget is not able to use a
template tiddler? I did try adding a "template=" section but it didn't work.
