Hi Maya, sounds like you used the first version of TiddlyBlink, which I had called a Roam-y experiment. In case you didn't hear, I have refined it quite a bit and it is now at https://giffmex.org/gifts/tiddlyblink.html, with an example site at https://giffmex.org/gifts/tiddlyblinkexample.html.
I am thrilled to hear my experiment got you to come back to TiddlyWiki after so much time! I can't help you with what you are asking about, but it looks like others are helping you out. Blessings.
