Shadow tiddlers are *built-in* to the TW core.  They can't be
deleted.  But they *can* be overridden by creating a *real* tiddler
with the same name.  If you subsequently delete that real tiddler,
then the shadow definition re-emerges and is applied.  In this
particular use-case, the one-line of javascript code in
[[DefaultTiddlersTweak]]:
   config.shadowTiddlers.DefaultTiddlers=new
Date().formatString("[[0DD-MMM-YYYY]]");
simply sets the content of the shadow definition, so that instead of
the hard-coded value ("GettingStarted"), it contains the current date.

Note: the date output above should to be enclosed in double-square
brackets so that it is an *explicit* TiddlyLink.... this is a small
change from the code I had previously posted, but might account for
the lack of success you are having.

enjoy,
