Transclusion Confusion

[David Allen]

I'm having some trouble with multiple transclusions in tiddlywiki causing unwanted behavior.

Here's my setup:

I have a number of image tiddlers that are formatted as follows:

Title: Image_Blah_1

Tags: image

Text: <img src={{!!img_url}} class="modal_image"/>

category: Blah

img_url: theimageurl

I have a second tiddler in which I'm trying to transclude the previous image tiddlers as follows:

Title: TemplateModal

Text: <$transclude tiddler={{!!theImage}}/>

theImage: Image_Blah_1

img_url: donotdisplaythis

What's happening is the transclusion of Image_Blah_1 into TemplateModal happens before the img_url reference is resolved in Image_Blah_1, so that the <$transclude> widget inserts the following into TemplateModal:

<img src={{!!img_url}} class="modal_image"/>

Which then becomes

<img src=donotdisplaythis class="modal_image"/>

What I'm trying to do is get it to display as the following:

<img src=theimageurl class="modal_image"/>

Does anyone know how to get this to work?

Wrap the <$tranclude> within a <$tiddler> widget, like this:

<$tiddler tiddler={{!!theImage}}><$transclude tiddler={{!!theImage}}/></$tiddler>

This will set the context for the data reference within the transclusion to the tiddler being transcluded, rather than the tiddler in which the transclusion is embedded.

maybe

<$tiddler tiddler={{!!theimage}}><$transclude /></$tiddler>
