Mr.Pearces fantastic TiddlerEncryptionPlugin allows for encryption of
individual tiddlers. In place of the tiddler contents you (optionally)
get a [Decrypt] button. Tiddlers encrypted with the same password all
open up once one of them is decrypted.

I have a family/friends reference TW and some tiddlers are specific
for specific individuals, meaning I encrypt them with different
password. Now, as it is, a [Decrypt] button only appears in the actual
tiddler that is encrypted. What I wanted was to list all the different
[Decrypt] buttons on the welcoming page, i.e allowing a general
welcoming page listing the individuals (or group) names next to a
[Decrypt] button that, when pressed, unlocks all tiddlers right away.
To me this makes more sense than having someone tiddle around only to
eventually stumble upon an encoded tiddler. And, because it is a
reference site with lots of listings (such as to-buy lists etc), it is
IMO better to have e.g items in a list decrypted from the start as
opposed to getting a list of stuff where some things in the middle of
the list have a button.

So, here's a solution;

Create empty tiddlers that contain the all relevant Encryption tags
and name them appropriately.
On e.g the welcoming page use the <<tiddler [[...]]>> macro next to
each name.
This results in a [Decrypt] button next to each name - but as soon as
it is pressed and password entered, the <<tiddler...>> macro will
display; nothing (thanks to the referenced tiddler being empty) -
effectively simply deleting the button. Pretty elegant IMO.
