I've messed up my settings by messing with the width of the story river and such and now when I click on the control panel icon it does nothing. It does not appear to be a clickable area. I've tried various ways to get to the control panel via other TW menu items with no luck. Any ideas how I can get back to my theme tweaks in the Control Panel?

Thank you!

G'day,

Give this a try to see if it works: Whatever the URL for your tiddlywiki instance, add #%24%3A%2FControlPanel to the URL.

Thank you it worked! And now I made a backup of my tiddly wiki which is on Tiddlyhost.

I also did not see my question on Google Groups which I posted to. Are all posts now being held for moderation? Because I had to use a new username today for Google Groups for Tiddlywiki. My old username from 2014 didn't work. And I haven't been on Google Groups for at least 3 years.

I also could not get access to talk.tiddlywiki.org from work, all I got was a timeout error. I think our work may have blocked all sites but a few. Or they use some type of third party block list.

I'm seeing your post just fine (it would have been some funky magic trick me responding to you otherwise.)

I'm tempted to say there's something funky going on with your network access from work.  If it helps any, this is the link to the thread on Google Groups:  https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/ajQpP-MSSLs

Talk.tiddlywiki.org is a discourse site.  It could very well be that your work environment blocks anything and everything that sniffs of discourse.

All of that aside, I'm happy we've figured a workaround to get you your control panel.  Rock'n roll !!!
