Jeff,

I do set $plugin.tipafriend.file.templateFile in my constants like this 
: plugin.tipafriend.file.templateFile = 
fileadmin/ltg_templates/tipafriend.tmpl

Jeff, currently you don't insert any plugin into lib.tipafriend,
you need something like this:

lib.tipafriend = TEXT
lib.tipafriend < temp.tipafriend  # <= This is the importend part....

the extention tipafriend will then take care of the rest, insert the link etc. etc.

cheers,
Ries
