Added the encryption plugin to my tiddlywiki when it popped up but only just got round to using it.

My thought was to put questions for the students and then in another tiddler hide the answers behind a password, telling the students how to work out the password, e.g. the first step in answering the question will give the access to the ans.

I've done a test run and it's good...however.....

Is it possible for the tiddler to 'stay encrypted' by which i mean that once a password is set for it the password stays with the tiddler even when it's been opened so that upon opening and editing the password doesn't need setting again? I'm envisioning having lots of different answer sets all with unique passwords and the more times i set it, the greater my chances of cocking up and locking a tiddler away forever...

Also I would like to put the password clue on the encrypted side of the tiddler and this currently resets after unlocking. Is it possible for this to be persistent too?

Cheers in advance.

I don't think that this is currently possible, but I hope to use something similar with twederation. I would like to make a widget that will decrypt text and display it without affecting the encrypted tiddler and without saving any changes to the tiddler store.
Considering the number of projects I am currently working on it may be a long time before I get around to it. Maybe someone else can create something first.
