title: How to create a custom story tiddler template
|
||
|
|
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here we show how to add a rule to the [[Story Tiddler Template Cascade]] that causes tiddlers tagged <<tag "$:/tags/TiddlerList">> to be displayed with a custom appearance incorporating thumbnails of the tiddlers named in the list field.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Open [[Demo Tiddler List with Custom Story Tiddler Template]] to see the demo.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, we add a new step to the story tiddler template cascade. The new filter step is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
[tag[$:/tags/TiddlerList]then[$:/_tw5.com/CustomStoryTiddlerTemplateDemo/Template]]
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It can be read as:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
If the tiddler has the tag $:/tags/TiddlerList then return $:/_tw5.com/CustomStoryTiddlerTemplateDemo/Template
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> The template $:/_tw5.com/CustomStoryTiddlerTemplateDemo/Template also depends on styles defined in [[$:/_tw5.com/CustomStoryTiddlerTemplateDemo/Styles]].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The story tiddler template cascade is defined by the tag <<tag "$:/tags/StoryTiddlerTemplateFilter">>, so we need to create a configuration tiddler with that tag.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We also need to make sure that it is inserted at the correct point in the cascade:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The new rule must be after the "draft" rule to ensure that draft tiddlers with the tag $:/tags/TiddlerList can be edited
|
||
|
|
* The new rule must be before the "default" rule otherwise it will never be executed
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The control panel "Cascades" tab shows that this can be achieved by inserting the new step immediately before the default step using the `list-before` field.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The full list of fields in the configuration tiddler is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<<.tiddler-fields "$:/_tw5.com/CustomStoryTiddlerTemplateDemo/Filter">>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally, we need to create the demo tiddler itself:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<<.tiddler-fields "Demo Tiddler List with Custom Story Tiddler Template">>
|
