How to create a description list

[Strider2000]

Is there any way to create a description list? I'm thinking something like:

• MyTiddler1 - this is one of the tiddlers I made
• SecondTiddler - this is another tiddler

I know how to use <<list-links>> but can't quite figure out the rest. I think I can add a description note in the description field, but I don't know how to get it to append to the list item. 

Thanks for any help.

To do something using more fields, you need to roll your own. Here's a starter kit:

<ul>
<$list filter="[tag[HelloThere]]">
<li><$link><<currentTiddler>></$link></li>
<dl><dd><$view field=description/></dd></dl>
</$list>
</ul>

I think you can see where to change the filter.

If your description is short, then consider using subtitle, and if it's really really short consider using 'caption' -- these terms are sometimes used (or will be used) in other macros and systems.

Good luck!

Thanks Mark I'll give those a try.

Yeah. That worked great. I changed it just a little and it gave me exactly what I wanted. Thanks again!

<ul>
<$list filter="[tag[Best Stories]]">
<li><$link><<currentTiddler>></$link> -
<$view field=description/></li>
</$list>
</ul>
