If I should post this somewhere else since it's specific to BOB, please let me know.

Love BOB, use it everyday. I've noticed that the "reconnect" button that comes up when the server has issues or internet is disconnected deletes many of my tiddlers after refreshing. Only recently during testing did I notice that this *doesn't* seem to be case in an unmodified wiki. The only thing I really customize the wiki with is the Material theme (http://j.d.material.tiddlyspot.com/). Note that the reconnect button needs to be moved down 100px or so for it to be viewable.

In an unmodified wiki, after reconnecting to internet / restarting BOB (I use the EXE by the way), it re-connects no problem.

With the theme, I press the button, I get a header telling me to save and restart, and when I refresh a good chunk of all of my tiddlers are gone.

For myself, I now know not to use the button, and force a full re-load each time internet changes (I move between dock/ethernet and meetings/wifi many times per day, each time I get the error). As I move closer to rolling this out for my team, I worry someone will accidentally press the button and destroy the wiki.

Any ideas of what I can try?
