Put an authorship on each tiddlers

I tried to add “666” as one or more tiddlers and show the author “666”, I tried to add the author’s name from the following two photos method did nothing, what is the situation?

Any answer would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks a million. I’ll give it a try

This little problem and the point in the link where I’m confused seems to be a problem

The value you enter in $:/ControlPanel > Info > Basics > "Username for signing edits" is used to set the modifier field (when creating or editing a tiddler), and the creator field (when adding a new tiddler).

I don’t know if you think that issue has much to do with this one, but I don’t see much of a connection. And for what it’s worth, no, I find neither one to be a very central problem. This one is simply a misunderstanding about where the author/editor name that shows up in tiddlers is configured. The other one is an interesting little problem on the interconnections between tiddlers, but not anything crucial.

As Eric pointed out, the modifier field is used by default. If you want to change that you can change the

$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/subtitle/modifier tiddler

From:

<$link to={{!!modifier}}/>

To:

<$link to={{{ [all[current]has[author]get[author]] :else[get[modifier]] }}}/>

This code will use the “author-field” if it has a value, otherwise it will use the modifier-field as it is by default.

Thank you very much, it seems that my code editor occasionally freak out, its search function did not search for a field that can be found with the eyes, I did not use my eyes to look for it, careless.

Well, I did do this correctly before, and I thought it worked on the old tiddlers as well works, actually it doesn’t, I fell into a trap.

Thank you for providing the solution, it can add all the individual tiddlers to the unified author name, it looks perfect, good luck!
