Thanks Jeremy and as always Thanks Tobias. Most PHP/MySQL type software I use has a separate 'Admin' log in address. I tried not to exclude options as sometimes reversing the idea will work better in this case #:viewonly is probably silly talk.
I need to read up on TW dev to answer this myself but can you deactivate the Admin sections easily? I know this is a ticket at GitHub so I will read up on TW design and add over there. Ideally the Admin Section could easily be password protected so maybe it links to a tiddler that once you enter the password 'Activates' stuff. This might allow for more fancy permissions too, so you have different views like #:User #:Admin #:Noob #heheh(that is laughter and not a view mode). Is there a JavaScript User Permissions Module that is small and good and could be added to TW? I know this beyond the scope of this post but this concept goes into a Content Management System.
