TW5 - How to display values of fields on a list tiddly

[Zan Thrax]

I'm just trying to use TiddlyWiki for the second time, and I have managed to make a tiddler that is just a list of all items with a particular tag, and how to sort that list by the value of a custom field that I'm using on all Tiddlers with that tag. But I can't figure out any way to display the value of that field as well.

<$list filter="[tag[Ring]sort[price]]">

Gives me the listing of all tiddlers with the tag "Ring", sorted by the custom field "price". But I'd like to also have the value of the custom field "price" (and possibly a second custom field, "CL") listed behind each entry.

Can anyone help me with this? The info on the TiddlyWiki Wiki about custom fields doesn't seem relevant to what I'm trying to do.

Hi Zan Thrax

Try this:

<$list filter="[tag[Ring]sort[price]]">

{{!!title}} {{!!price}} {{!!CL}}

</$list>

Thanks! That works perfectly.

As a follow up, is there any way to format the output of the price so that I can have the data be a simple integer (4000) but have it display w/ commas (4,000) ? If not, it's easy enough to change the data to include the commas.

Sorry, I don't know.

Hmm. I've just noticed two things. The first is that using the code Alberto posted makes the titles not display as links, the second is that my sort[price] is sorting alphanumerically rather than by value (i.e. 3000 before 900)

To see the titles display as links:

<$link>{{!!title}}</$link>

or

<$link><$view field="title"/></$link>

the second is that my sort[price] is sorting alphanumerically rather than by value (i.e. 3000 before 900)

To sort by value, use: 

nsort[price]

Thanks again Alberto. With those changes I have what I wanted. (except commas, which I can live without just fine)
