The following sidebar tabs give examples of grouped lists created by nesting.

Types Tab

For the Types tab, the outer list filter as shown below selects each discrete value found in the type field. The inner list filter selects all the (non-system) tiddlers with that type.

\whitespace trim
<$list filter={{$:/core/Filters/TypedTiddlers!!filter}}>
<div class="tc-menu-list-item">
<$view field="type"/>
<$list filter="[type{!!type}!is[system]sort[title]]">
<div class="tc-menu-list-subitem">
<$link to={{!!title}}><$view field="title"/></$link>
</div>
</$list>
</div>
</$list>

Recent Tab

The list in the Recent tab is generated using the timeline macro. Here, the outer list filter selects each discrete day found in the modified field, while the inner list filter selects all the tiddlers dated the same day in the modified field.

$:/core/macros/timeline:

<!-- Override one or both of the following two macros with a global or local macro of the same name 
if you need to change how titles are displayed on a timeline -->

\procedure timeline-title() <$view field="title"/>
\procedure timeline-link() <$link to={{!!title}}><<timeline-title>></$link>
\procedure timeline(limit:"100",format:"DDth MMM YYYY",subfilter:"",dateField:"modified")
\whitespace trim
<div class="tc-timeline">
<$set name="tv-tids" filter=`[!is[system]$(subfilter)$has<dateField>!sort<dateField>limit<limit>]`>
<$list filter="[enlist<tv-tids>eachday<dateField>]">
<div class="tc-menu-list-item">
<$view field=<<dateField>> format="date" template=<<format>>/>
<$list filter=`[enlist<tv-tids>sameday:$(dateField)${!!$(dateField)$}]`>
<div class="tc-menu-list-subitem">
<<timeline-link>>
</div>
</$list>
</div>
</$list>
</$set>
</div>
