New to tiddlywiki. Have 2 questions
1) Is it possible to password protect an entire tiddlywiki so that on
opening it asks for a password before showing any tiddlers but once
password is entered it shows everything. (or some similar approach)
2)Next is a bit more hopeful/unlikely. Is there anyway that automates
sending a specific tiddler or geoup of tiddlers by email.

thanks for your help

Brian.

My TiddlerEncryptionPlugin does not encrypt the entire tiddlywiki.
It encrypts only tiddlers that are tagged to be encrypted.
That said, if you tagged all your tiddlers, the effect would be the
same.
It prompts for a password when an encrypted tiddler is requested for
display, so you can still have an 'intro' tiddler which is not
encrypted, if you wish.
Once a password is entered, it is re-used for all subsequent
decryptions (unless you request that you have to enter the password
every time a new tiddler requires decrypting).
Saving the tiddlywiki causes all decrypted tiddlers to be re-
encrypted.
The password is cached until the tiddlywiki is refreshed.
The other limitation is that the password is visible, as you type it -
due to the way the plugin works.

It is available at http://www.remotely-helpful.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlerEncryptionPlugin.html

There are others, have a look at

Hi Brian,

there is also an EncryptedVaultPlugin which encrypts all content
tiddlers:
