Jennifer,

I'm running 5.1.19 on a server. Here's an example startup command that 
works for me.

/usr/local/bin/tiddlywiki /home/jbaty/apps/wiki/batywiki --listen 
"readers=(anon)" writers=jack username=notmyusername 
password=thisisnotmyrealpassword


That by default runs on port 8080 on the localhost only, so you probably 
want to put a "real" web server in front of it. I use nginx as a proxy, but 
GoDaddy may use Apache. Either way, on a shared host it might be 
challenging to set this all up. I have a few notes here:

Tony's suggestion would be easier, and without all the node 
business....edit your wiki locally with Firefox/Timimi or TiddlyDesktop 
then upload a copy to a web folder on the server. This sounds like it might 
be a better option for you.
