I too am having this problem even with a 2.4.1 core and the CoreTweaks
imply that the necessary change has already been made in 2.4.1. So I
thought I'd look into the code change above but, while heeding the
warning to leave the core alone and modify a plugin instead, I wasn't
sure where this specific core function exists and hence which shadow
tiddler to check and modify if necessary. Which would it be please?
Thanks
Kevin
