Hi, I'm using TiddlyWiki as a Wiki for a story so I have everything gathered in one place when I need help remembering things.

There was a mention of a tiddler, a sort of [[mention of said non-existing tiddler]], that after being for a long time inside a bigger tiddler, I decided to remove [[mention of said non-existing tiddler]] from the tiddler text, but now, every SINGLE time I write mention of said non-existing tiddler, it automatically makes it [[mention of said tiddler]] in the preview and on the final text, even though that on the text-writing-box I never wrote [[mention of said non-existing tiddler]], I only wrote mention of said non-existing tiddler.

I've tried editing the HTML via google-chrome inspect element, and after saving the wiki, and opening it back up, everything was back to the same problem.

How do I fix this?

Is the tiddler name in camel case? Something like this: someName ?

What Jed and Mohammad are saying camelCase text is automatically made into a link. Proceed with ~camelCase or desperate the words to stop.

You may need to give us a better example of you problem text.

David,

Glad you have it. It is possible to turn off this automatic link process if you must, 
  • The first option in Control Panel > Settings.
  • However I would not do this as it is a key feature of wikis. 
  • Perhaps you could turn it off only before publishing your wiki to others?.

As I said "~" stops camel case turning into a link, but its easy to avoid camel case
for example;

Naka Tatsu
Naka-Tatsu
Nakatatsu
Naka,Tatsu

And if you want a link after having avoided it

[[Naka-Tatsu]]


Regards
Tony
