MacJournal 6.1.7b1
Get it here.
6.1.7 is a small followup release to 6.1.6, which came out about a week ago. Some users were seeing issues where entries and journals would duplicate themselves while using MacJournal. This apparently was due to how MacJournal reacts to the system it is running on telling it that its data changed outside of MacJournal. This release tries to address this in a few different way. First, it improves the strategy used to merge the data from disk to eliminate cases where it might duplicate something. The second is to stop paying attention to these messages from the system in cases where it doesn't make much sense. If the document isn't on something like Dropbox, these notifications are likely spurious (and may be a bug in the operating system itself) and would just cause unnecessary work for MacJournal. This is now turned off for most cases and I will look into perhaps turning this general ability back on in the future after testing with future versions of the operating system.
Please let me know if you have any issues with this soon as I expect the final release to come out later this week,

MacJournal 6.1b3
Get it here.
This beta has some bug fixes and improvements in behavior. It also should improve behavior when facing conflicts with data on Dropbox since Dropbox has its own way of handling conflicts. Other than that, large images should look better in certain WordPress templates, the default auto-save time is now shorter, most of the items in the Text Cleanup menu will work in the Topic field, and double-clicking an entry with content that can't be edited in MacJournal directly will open the best application for that content directly.
Please let me know of any issues that you have via the Report a Bug item in the Help menu.

MacJournal 6.1b2
Get it here.
There are mostly bug fixes in this beta over the last one. For example, refreshed categories will now be saved correctly when you are posting an entry to a blog. When syncing a document with an iOS device for the first time, there will be an extra message saying so just in case that is unexpected.
One change that you might not see is to how MacJournal deals with changes from other device using the same data over Dropbox. While opening the same place on more than one machine was never recommended, it sometimes happens and this release should hopefully handle it better by merging in the changes from the updated file on disk instead of wholly replacing the opened document, which may have some unsaved changes.
Please give this a try and let me know of any issues via the Report item in the Help menu. Thanks for trying MacJournal!

MacJournal 6.1b1
Download it here.
This is the first beta of the 6.1 release. There are a lot of changes in this release, but not all of them may be immediately apparent. For example, this release should improve performance and memory efficiency. There are several new features to use as well. There's a new live Markdown preview window available. You can add a new column to the Entries list for which journal the entry is from. You can see the character count for an entry next to the word count in the bottom bar. There's a new item in the Format menu to re-apply the default style to a selection of text. There is a new German localization. You can now rename tags in the Change Tags sheet. There are many smaller fixes and improvements for things like blogging, smart journals, syncing, and importing. See the full list in the Version History. Please report any problems that you have using the Report item in the Help menu.

MacJournal 6.0.7b10
Get it here.
Beta 9 expires on Tuesday, so here's a new beta to extend that date. I'm planning on releasing 6.0.7 Tuesday as well but I don't want anyone to miss out on the new release. Despite what I said about the release date, please still let me know of any issues you have using the Help menu's bug reporting item. In terms of what's new, it's mostly just bug fixes. Statistics should be improved, as should restoring a journal from a backup. Blogging is improved, as usual. Dealing with the Browse toolbar item when the Entries list is open should make more sense as well.

MacJournal 6.0.7b9
This beta is mainly to test a new authentication mechanism that will soon be required for Imgur posting. If you use Imgur, please give it a try and let me know if you have any problems. Of course, please let me know of any problems anywhere in the app as I’d like to release it very soon, pending one final bug fix. There is also a new Norwegian localization, fixes for the calendar and timeline views, a change to the default toolbar layout, and a fix for sending empty entries to Blogger. Thanks for testing MacJournal!

The last beta was supposed to be the last, but there were some additional changes for iOS syncing that went in that I'd like to get out a little in advance. Like last time, I'm hoping this is the last beta. Please let me know if you have any problems as I'd like to get this out very soon.

MacJournal 6.0.7b6
Get it here.
This should hopefully be the last beta of 6.0.7 (famous last words). It fixes a regression in beta 5 with the calendar as well as a few other bugs and performance improvements. There's also a "Rebuild Search Index" item in the Help menu instead of having to use a bunch of modifier keys when launching to do it. Please let me know if you have any issues with this beta via the Help menu's Report a Bug item since this will be released soon. Thanks!

This update is out for Mac App Store users as well, so run the App Store to get the update. This update has the typical number of bug and crash fixes.

Use the Report a Bug item in the Help menu to email me.
