Sendwheel, Thanks that is working and working well. It is very exciting for me and I may soon publish a number of tools online based on TiddlyWiki. Thanks so much.
For others reading this I have it working over https In a spirit of progress a few notes - So in summary the Wiki is read only and throws a message on the creation of a tiddler unless one goes to Control Panel > Saving > TW Receiver and provides the "password/Secret Key" - Once you do this, saving will work in that browser session indefinatly? - The whole folder could be placed behind a password to stop public access even read only. *Some feedback* *Read only mode* Would it be possible not to throw a message when people have read only access and on every change they make, and leave it to when and If they try and save the wiki? Basically do not try and save if it does not have permission to do so. Even simple state tiddlers could cause this failed save to occur, I want to build wikis that may be read only (to most) but the user can enter details and export/email their "input" the error message makes this somewhat unworkable. My work around is to turn off autosave however this exposes me to loss if I forget to save. Perhaps turning off Autosave if the tiddlywiki cant save to the server would be a practical solution. *Update Contention* I imagine that if more than one person had the password they could overwrite each others changes. Could we use php to drive a checkout process, basically allow a request to checkout and if not already (because its flagged) save a state on the server including the current user and or contact info (If provided) - thus no one else could check it out until the named user checks it back in (or the state deleted)? *Password "address"* I have noticed a Password Vault LastPass offering to save the password for me, however it only does so for the domain, and does not seem to recognise the password is meant for the site in its folder ie not for https://psat.com.au but for https://psat.com.au/tiddlywiki/PHPWiki.html or https://psat.com.au/tiddlywiki I think something in the authentication is causing this, perhaps there is away to ensure the password is recognised as belonging to the subsite not the domain. Thanks again for a great leap forward (for me as I could not get others working) Perhaps because of the PHP Version - who knows. Your contribution opens TiddlyWiki to further adoption.
