Here's one way to prevent saving changes... 1) Disable auto-saving the wiki.
2) Edit the core shadow tiddler for the save wiki button, e.g. $:/core/ui/Buttons/save-wiki <http://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2Fcore%2Fui%2FButtons%2Fsave-wiki>: <$reveal type="match" state="$:/_secret" text="my-secret"> <!-- THE CORE BUTTON CODE --> </$reveal> Now the save button should be gone from the page-controls. 3) Read States And Temporary Tiddlers @ tb5 <http://tobibeer.github.io/tb5/#States%20And%20Temporary%20Tiddlers> and then add... -[[$:/_secret]] ...to the filter expression to make sure it never gets saved. I would also recommend modifying the filter to what you see on tb5 to not persist any states of sidebar tabs, etc. 4) Create *$:/_secret* and enter the text *my-secret*. Now the save button should be visible again... and you can click it to save the wiki. 5) To easily enter your password, create and permalink <http://tiddlywiki.com/#PermaLinks> a tiddler called *Login* containing... <$edit-text tiddler="$:/_secret" default="" tag="input" type="password" placeholder="enter secret here..."/> When you tag it *$:/tags/ControlPanel* it will show up as a *Login* tab in the *ControlPanel*. ~ As probably noticed, your "password" is entirely visible in plain text, so be aware that this should not be any fancy password but just a barrier to enable saving. Also, if anyone activated auto-save, they won't even need a save button to trigger saving changes. So, anyone playful enough or with malicious intent will be able to screw up your wiki. Hence, do frequent backups. Best wishes, –tb -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
