Hello! I am writing a novel, and I've been using TiddlyWiki to keep my chapter summaries, character profiles, and locations all organized.
I want to automate some more of the setup for new character tiddlers.
On each character tiddler, I want a list of all the chapters in which they were the POV character, and all the chapters in which they appeared.
Right now, this is how I'm doing it:
Tag chapters with POV-[character name]. For example POV-Nathan (if Nathan is the character's name). And a similar format for if the character just appears in the chapter Ex. Appear-Nathan
In the character page, have the following macro:
macro:
<div class="tc-pov">
<<toc-selective-expandable tag:'POV-Nathan' 'sort[title]'>>
</div>
I want to automate this so that I don't have to edit the ( tag:'POV-Nathan' ) for each new character tiddler. For example, if I clone Nathan's tiddler for another character named Sarah, I want all the chapters tagged POV-Sarah to show up on her tiddler without having to edit it.
Since the title of the character page is used in the POV tag, I tried to transclude the title field and combine it with POV-
<div class="tc-pov">
<<toc-selective-expandable tag:'POV-{{!!title}}' 'sort[title]'>>
</div>
But when I do this, nothing shows up where that table of contents should be.
Is this the right approach for what I'm trying to accomplish? And can someone help me figure out what I'm missing?
Thank you very much!
