Hi Josiah,

As Birthe mentioned: at the end you have to save.
The same - you have to save - holds for the available core theme ReadOnly.
To be honest there is a trick to save; try it with an empty TW:

1) Get the ReadOnly theme (Controlpanel > Plugins > Get more plugins); Save 
and reload
2) Check if Autosave is on (Controlpanel > Saving, tab General)
3) Create a tiddler but stay in edit mode (draft tiddler)
4) Choose ReadOnly theme (Sidebar, Tools tab)
5) Navigate to the draft tiddler and hit Ctrl-Enter. This confirms changes 
to the draft tiddler *and* saves the TW.

Cheers,

Ton
