Damon,

This is not very common in TiddlyWiki but Can happen. If you get an empty 
file and import your existing wiki it should block core tiddlers and the 
others are your tiddlers, you could then use the preview on suspicious 
tiddlers.

Alternatively in your wiki advanced search look for all shadow tiddlers 
that have being modified and look inside them to see if the edits could be 
the causer.

Another method is to research the whole side bar mechanism on an empty.html 
and check your own wiki for any variance. 

There are many ways to do this that you learn over time. Alternatively you 
could make the wiki (or a reduced content version with the same problem) 
available to all or a trusted community member and let them have a look for 
you.

There is also the procrastinators approach, let go of that issue for now 
and continue with other items. Procrastinators sometimes suddenly discover 
what the did wrong when the stop thinking about it. Thus justifying their 
procrastination.

best of luck
 Tony
