Hi Jeremy This behaviour is not a problem for an old hand, but will confuse new users (even I was a little surprised -- I am used to the behaviour of the node.js version and expected TiddlyFox's behaviour to be the same.)
This will have to be made quite clear to new users -- perhaps a popup modal 'Save Settings' window when leaving the Control panel might be appropriate (standalone version only.) regards On Monday, July 28, 2014 6:58:10 PM UTC+2, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > > Having done this -- I opened the control panel to change a few of the > basic settings and on refreshing the wiki, these changes were lost. > > Adjusting settings in the control panel doesn't currently cause an > autosave.
