My previous post I was discussing a Tiddler that was actually a macro / view template that turned on and turned off your "Administration Stuff" That Tiddler was encrypted with a password to keep people from getting to the "Administration Stuff" I like the idea of Password protecting the control panel, until I lose the password or write it down incorrectly, d'oh!!!
I thought of another usage method and this one seems harder then simply encrypting a tiddler. Is there a way to create an "Admin Mode" like "Safe Mode" - Instead of #:safe you would put #:admin and that would allow you to make changes? Or maybe reverse that and have a view only mode #:viewonly? Not sure how you keep it from being hacked though. Right now I am working locally and then uploading so for me it is a bit easier to implement a "View Only" version, even though I haven't done that yet. I am sure I would save it and then lose the save feature and get frustrated for a bit till I found the link listed above.
