Hi,
I’m all caught up. Thank you to everyone for your help.
One last question but only if it’s pain free: how would I create a list, under open in the menu, for example, of journal entries only. Currently it displays all Tiddlers, including stylesheets and images. I’d prefer a menu of journals only.
Can this be done?
Thank you for your time,

The “open” tab in the Sidebar lists all tiddlers that are currently displayed in the StoryRiver. I don’t think you want to change that! Instead, what you probably should do is to create a new sidebar tab that contains a list of links to all journal tiddlers (i.e., tiddlers tagged with Journal).
This can be done very easily by creating a new tiddler (e.g., “Journals”), tagged with $:/tags/SideBar, containing:
<$list filter="[tag[Journal]] :sort:date:reverse[{!!title}]"><$link/><br></$list>
The filter will show links to all journal tiddlers, sorted by date (based on the title), newest first.
You can also change where the Journal tab appears in the sidebar tabs by clicking on the $:/tags/SideBar “tag pill” (shown when you view your new “Journals” tiddler in the StoryRiver). This shows a droplist of all tiddlers with that tag. Then, just use drag-and-drop to re-position the “Journals” title within that droplist.
That’s it. You’re done!

Very nice!
Thank you, that’s exactly what I needed.
Have a great day,

One other point, since you seem to be concerned partly with what public users see:
If you use the TiddlyTweaks ReadOnly solution (mentioned on another thread with you recently), you can specify which sidebar tabs show up for public viewers. Remove the “Recent” tab, if you want only to show tabs, such as “Journals” specifically curated for public viewers.
In addition to using the tag $:/tags/SideBar, make sure to give your tab a caption field with whatever you want to appear on the tab as displayed in sidebar. You can even include an icon: 📓 Journals or similar.
Thank you. I have the Read Only Theme; nice to know I can manage it.
Happy Day,

Hello Parodocs,
You may also want to look at @Mohammad journal book solution which clusters journals by months/years :
