Hi PJO, 1) My readonly demo at [1] was made with TW5.0.8-beta. I don't know (yet) if it works with v5.0.10-beta; I am busy upgrading my guides to v5.0.10-beta. It will take some time since there are a lot of changes in v5.0.10-beta to cope with.
2) ONLY just for v5.0.8-beta: As far as I can see what you describe is correct. Upon switching the ReadOnly theme, BOTH buttons in the top menu (Save left and Toggle sidebar right) ought to be visible! You can download my demo at [1] and check if that works as described.
