The attachment contains 4 tiddlers.

  1. $:/config/empty-story-backdrop … contains the sidebar tab
  2. $:/config/EmptyStoryMessage … contains the tiddler that is shown in the StoryRiver
  3. $:/config/emtpy-bigger-text … line 1
  4. $:/config/emtpy-big-text … line 2

I think it is more appropriate to use Empty Story as the homepage of the website, Or used to randomly display tiddler(s), or display today’s journal

That’s right. As I wrote in the PS and PPS :wink: There is room for improvements.

I personally don’t get tired to randomly read stuff like this on a private facing or even public facing page.
