Steven,

Your time limited requirement here does suggest we should have a ready to 
publish read only edition for use. Perhaps I can throw one together.

Just hiding many of the toolbar buttons which some call a read only view, 
turning off autosave and changing the filter in $:/config/SaverFilter may 
go a long way to what you are looking for. see 
https://tiddlywiki.com/#SavingMechanism you can change this filter so the 
save icon which you hide never turns red.

If you think the infinite story confuses people consider using a different 
story view, provide menus and install $:/plugins/wikilabs/link-to-tabs to 
add tabs at the top so people can locate multiple tiddlers that are open

Also close the side bar before saving to publish, the trick is to have a 
save button available in the menus or a hidden tiddler so you can make the 
wiki wysiwyg before saving to publish.

I have a tiddler I set to designermode = no then use this to switch off 
items through out the wiki for publishing. 

Regards
Tony
