When would I be missing the "new tiddler" + sign?

[Wpq]

Hello everyone

I just started to use TiddlyWiki by installing it in a docker container (https://hub.docker.com/r/vimagick/tiddlywiki).

When going to the wiki page, I was greeted with the welcome page. Th eproblem I have is that there is no "+" sign anywhere!

What could be the reason for that?

Hi,

Your screenshot isn't visible. ... At least for me.

Sorry for that - apparently the copy/paste did not go though:  https://imgur.com/a/azYfKp5  (and there is no way to edit my original message)

WPQ,

To fix the side bar position, Use Control Panel > Appearance > Theme Tweaks First option set as follows

Sidebar layout

Fixed story, fluid sidebarFluid story, fixed sidebar

To show the Page Control Buttons go to Control Panel > Appearance > Toobars > Page Tool bar

And at least select more (to get a droop down to all page controls), or check the New Tiddler Button.

Have you logged in via http://127.0.0.1:8080/login-basic ?

Ah! Thank you! That was the reason. When I logged in I saw the "+" sign.

While in hindsight this is obvious, it may be a good idea to add that point to the "Getting stated" tiddler, as more may be searching for the "+".

Thanks again for the help

The login/readonly situation only happens when using authentication on node, which is not the default but is set up by the docker container you are using.
