sendwheel,

Thanks so much for this, I will test it in haste as I have a large online 
hosting environment based on PHP which has being unsuitable for hosting my 
"private" wikis. I could never get prior php solutions working.

I will eventually use https and even a CDN for speed.

I am also committed to integrating TiddlyWiki with other platforms like 
WordPress and this is a good method.

If I may extend the conversation a little, have you done any work with 
executing php from within TiddlyWiki - basically calling php installed on 
the host for this purpose? It would allow feedback and comments to read 
only tiddlywiki users.

Regards
Tony
