hi and thanks for your great work on this plugin. i have a little request.

i read here ( https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/C_svkYnZubA ) that i can use your plugin to create a backlink section into all my tiddlers. so i added this into the view template ov my tiddlers

{{||$:/plugins/flibbles/relink/ui/TiddlerInfo/References}}

i have tiddlers with a custom field named "description" which contains text like "i want to link to [[Record]] but this dienst show up"

On the tiddler Record i can see every Link to this tiddler, except links from tiddlers where the wikilink is in the description.

is this out of scope of your plugin or am i missing something?

i also added unter config -> Operators "field:description" as wikitext but it doenst work.

could you eloberate a bit more in the doc, how one can display the backlinks?

You need to use the "Fields" tab instead of the "Operators" tab. Add an entry called "description", and set the dropdown to wikitext.

I understand why you put it in "operators" as "field:description". The "field:title" entry is there, but that concerns the filter operator [field:title[]].

The documentation can probably be clarified a bit, so I'll leave this issue open until I put out the next release.
