OS: Arch Linux
Browsers: Firefox 69.0b7 (64-bit), Chromium 75.0.3770.142 (Official Build) Arch Linux (64-bit)
Tiddlywiki editions: Bug seen in 5.1.19 as well as 5.1.18.  Not seen in 5.1.17

Bug:
Upon installing tiddlyweb plugin to an empty tiddlywiki, the following buttons simply disappear from the corresponding toolbars
 - New tiddler
 - Edit tiddler
 - Delete tiddler

Points to note:
- Button tiddlers are not deleted. Nor have they lost their corresponding tags which make them part of the corresponding toolbars.
- Listing tiddlers tagged "$:/tags/ViewToolbar" correctly shows them to be part of list.
- Settings>Appearance>Toolbars also shows them part of corresponding toolbars

How to reproduce the issue:
Download an empty tiddlywiki. Install Tiddlyweb plugin.


Kindly take a moment to confirm this bug.

For clarification: No I did not use timimi for saving.

Sincerely
Riz

Hi Riz

When the TiddlyWeb plugin starts up it interrogates the server to determine whether it has read-only or full read-write access. If it can’t confirm full read-write access then the UI is flipped into read-only mode, where certain UI elements are hidden.

The TiddlyWeb plugin is not currently designed to be used in standalone wikis.

Best wishes

Jeremy
