What can I do to make the field "caption" show in the story river as title?

[008]

I add a field "caption" to my tiddler,  I can see the caption showing in the "list-links" or "toc-selective-expandable", but in the sotry river, it also shows the title, where I want to also show the caption.

What can I do to got this work?

BUT in this site http://tw5-zh.tiddlyspot.com/   .  It's ok to rendering caption in the story river. I cann't find out why.

That site is using a customized version of $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/title, in which they have replaced this line:

<$view field="title"/>

with this:

<<toc-caption>>

If you make that same change, you will get the results you want.  To edit the shadow tiddler:

1) Open the AdvancedSearch by clicking on the magnifying glass icon next to the sidebar search input field

2) Select the "Shadows" tab

3) Enter "viewtemplate/title" in the AdvancedSearch input field

4) Click on the resulting link to view $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/title

5) Press the edit button

6) Change the line as described above

7) Press the done button

enjoy,

On the site http://tw5-zh.tiddlyspot.com/ 

The tiddler $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/title has being changed to use the macro <<toc-caption>>

as do others like $:/editions/tw5.com/operator-macros

Use advanced search for toc-caption and find where this "macro is defined and ensure the same in your TiddlyWiki.

Make a backup then drag and drop the tiddlers on to your wiki and see if that works.

Using Shadows tab seems no result appear! but Filter tab shows the result if you input the whole tiddler name

I just verified... on https://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2FAdvancedSearch:

Entering "viewtemplate/title" in the Shadows tab input field *does* show one result: $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/title

Correct! My mistake, I input in System tab!

I think you can use Mat's http://aliases.tiddlyspot.com

You can use the caption field instead of the alias field by modifying the"Alias ViewTemplate".
