Folks,

Perhaps someone has seen a similar problem and may provide a suggestion where to start to trouble shoot this if possible?

I have a large 6Mb wiki with lots of tiddlywiki notes and it has being upgraded to 5.1.23. I access it for saving via Timimi in either Chrome or firefox however once I have a new tiddler I am stuck with it in edit mode, none of the edit view buttons seem to work (Done/Close or delete) . I can save the whole wiki. On reload the drafts are accumulating at the bottom of the screen and in the recent tab. I now have some draft of drafts.

Any troubleshooting tips would be appreciated

Thanks
Tones

I doubt I can say much that you didn't already try so FWIW

By deleting stuff and saving a new copy every time, you should be able to "scale it down" until it works.
Look at what shadows are overwritten and remove the overwrites.
Remove one plugin at a time.

Maybe before any of that; peek with the inspector tool to see if there's some styling that somehow blocks the edit buttons.

Frustrating.

Hi Tony,
If you don't mind, you can pack the wiki as a zip and send it to me by mail.
I'll do what I can, to fix it.
