title: Current Tiddler
|
|
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
|
|
|
|
The <<.def "current tiddler">> provides the context in which several aspects of WikiText are interpreted.
|
|
|
|
For example, `{{!!title}}` denotes the value of the <<.field title>> field of whatever the current tiddler happens to be. This technique can be used to create general-purpose [[template tiddlers|TemplateTiddlers]].
|
|
|
|
The title of the current tiddler can always be found in the <<.vlink currentTiddler>> variable.
|
|
|
|
The two most common ways in which the current tiddler is changed are:
|
|
|
|
* the <<.wlink TiddlerWidget>> widget
|
|
* the <<.wlink ListWidget>> widget (when its <<.attr variable>> attribute is not overridden)
|
|
|
|
The current tiddler is therefore often <<.em not>> the same as the [[tiddler that is being viewed or edited|storyTiddler Variable]].
