The old version of the Bookmarks page was a simple feature. It basically added bookmarks to the bottom of a wiki page. Unfortunately, it was part of the "home" wiki and used the old text database format. I needed to convert the home wiki for Android, but couldn't do it without breaking Bookmarks.

v2.6.2 now prefers v1 over v2. This should automatically fix anyone who encountered the problem above. Of course, if a v1 user moves to v2, then they would have to move / delete the v1 databases in order to see v2.

As I've been delaying the image databases until I got a new wikidata, I decided to do something else besides waiting. Wikimedia also generates JSON dumps and these have been running consistently every week for the past two months. See <a href="http://dumps.wikimedia.org/wikidatawiki/entities/" rel="nofollow" class="external free">http://dumps.wikimedia.org/wikidatawiki/entities/</a>

- With this in mind, I wrote some very basic import code to build a wikidata wiki from the JSON dump. It's not perfect, but it allows me to make progress with the image databases.

- v2.5.4.1 is a significant release. In brief, it involved a rewrite of the online file downloading system to use the same system as the offline version. It also includes instructions for building the image databases on <a href="//gnosygnu.github.io/xowa/wiki/home/page/Dashboard/Image_databases.html" id="xolnki_25" title="Dashboard/Image databases" class="xowa-visited">Dashboard/Image_databases</a> as well as an Android alpha.

As a side-note, I've not generated image databases for a few weeks. This is due to the dumps being badly broken at <a href="http://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html" rel="nofollow" class="external free">http://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html</a> See <a href="https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/xmldatadumps-l/2015-May/date.html" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/xmldatadumps-l/2015-May/date.html</a> and <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T98585" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T98585</a> .

- v2.4.4.1 introduces a multi-wiki search feature. The configuration is a bit difficult, but it should be flexible enough to handle most scenarios. See <a href="//gnosygnu.github.io/xowa/wiki/home/page/Options/Search.html" id="xolnki_27" title="Options/Search" class="xowa-visited">Options/Search</a>. I also made a few more improvements to the general Search behavior. There are also some important incremental fixes from earlier this week.
