new tiddler by template with wikify current tiddler title

[Dave]

I have a tiddler that has the following new tiddler button:

<<newTiddler
    label:"New Essay"
    text:{{store.getTiddlerText("NewEssayTemplate")}}
    tag:"EssayTitles"
>>


which refers to the tiddler [[NewEssayTemplate]]:
the title of this essay is: <<wikify "%0" {{tiddler.title}}>>


but when I click it and fill in the title, say "hello world", the new tiddler displays this:
the title of this essay is: New Tiddler hello world

Is there an obvious solution to this self-referencing dilemma?


thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave,
At my teamwork place I have some "newTiddler" examples.
As I don't understand what exactly your problem is, I can't point you
to a specific one.
But may be there is one, that fits :)

Thanks Mario, that was really helpful. :)

Here's what ended up working for me (referring to the same NewEssayTemplate):

<<tiddler {{tiddler.title+"##code"}}>>

!code

<script label="New Essay" title="Create a new Essay topic">
var alwaysTag="EssayTitles";
var title=prompt("Please enter your new essay title","Another Dumb Essay");
var mytext=store.getTiddlerText("NewEssayTemplate")
var tags=[alwaysTag, "anyTag"];
store.saveTiddler(
  title,
  title,
  mytext,
  config.options.txtUserName,
  new Date(),
  tags);
story.displayTiddler(null,title);
</script>

I think it works over the other because it writes the tiddler directly instead of opening it for editing, where the previous version got the title wikified "twice"
