Hi Shavinder! Got it solved thanks to you!
I never called [[ToggleRightSidebar]] before checking the value of "config.options.chkShowRightSidebar". That would explain why it's value changed to NULL on page reloads -- it never got initialized. So, I added statement: <<tiddler ToggleRightSidebar>> to one of the tiddlers called at startup as you explained, and now the right sidebar is hidden for regular visitors and shown when admin logs in. I think the documentation on TiddlyTools.com needs serious improvement. Thanks a million, Sir!
