XOWA generates a simple Category system when it builds a wiki (this is called v1). If you want an authentic version of the Category system (this is called v2), you can always import it separately under <a href="http://xowa.org/home/wiki/Dashboard/Import/Offline.html" id="xolnki_3" title="Dashboard/Import/Offline" class="xowa-visited">Import offline</a>.

The simple Category system looks like it broke some time ago during the general database redesign from .sqlite3 to .xowa. I fixed it for this release.

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.

v2.5.4.1 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.

I'm postponing the official release to next week. There are still only a handful of issues, and unfortunately, I don't have the time this week to do a full release.
</p>
<p>
However, I am pushing out a BETA release. This is the same as a regular release, except:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
I haven't documented all the changes in the Change Log or readme.txt (so you'll only know what's included from a short list at <a href="https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/releases" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/releases</a>)
</li>
<li>
I haven't tested the release fully (so some of the new items may not work)
</li>
<li>
I won't be able to fix any unexpected regression bugs (so if there is a new critical bug, you should just rollback to the old v3.10.4.1 build)
</li>
</ul>
<p>
If you want to give it a try, get it from <a href="https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/releases/BETA_v3.10.4.6" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/releases/BETA_v3.10.4.6</a>
</p>
<p>
Otherwise, you can wait for the next release for next Sunday evening.
</p>
<p>
For wikis, I uploaded Swedish and Spanish. I'm going to work on 2016-11 next. See: <a href="https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/issues/95" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/issues/95</a>
