Hi Zane, The answer to your questions is yes. You can do all these things. .... IMO the reason, why nobody replied yet, is ... it depends on the theme you use. And a little bit on your abilities to use a browsers developer tools, because it may be possible to lock the TW, if something doesn't work well. TW is easy to unlock again, but you'll need the browser dev tools.
Assuming you use an up to date vanilla TW from tiddlywiki.com Toggle right sidebar - http://www.tiddlytools.com/#ToggleRightSidebar - create a tiddler eg: zzConfig and tag it systemConfig - read the ToggleRightSidebar docs and play with it, to see, how it works. The settings take effect only, if the button is visible on the page. eg: add <<tiddler ToggleRightSidebar>> to the "SiteSubtitle" tiddler ------------ IMPORTANT: Create a backup first !!! TW uses javascript. .. There is a "global" variable called readOnly The tiddler zzConfig is tagged systemConfig ... This means it will be executed at TW startup. So it can be used to set global variables. If you add the following content to the zzConfig tiddler, you'll get a "readOnly" version. if (config.txtUserName === "Zane") { reanOnly = false; config.options.chkShowRightSidebar = true; } else if (config.txtUserName === "secondName") { reanOnly = false; config.options.chkShowRightSidebar = true; } else if (config.txtUserName === "thirdName") { reanOnly = false; config.options.chkShowRightSidebar = true; } else { readOnly = true; config.options.chkShowRightSidebar = false; } The user name can be set in the right sidebar. So you may need a somewhat "hidden" button to activate it again. Edit the user name and do a page reload. ------------ Usefull resources: http://tiddlywiki.org ... default docs http://customize.tiddlyspace.com ... a lot of tweaking info If there are any questions. -> just ask! hope this helps mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
