Diego,
In my test Wiki the default new journal twice opens the existing one and
retains the content.
I have followed the create new Journal button instructions before and found
it cumbersome.
Now I use my own macro; eg
\define todayentry()
<$button tooltip="Create or Open Today entry">
{{$:/core/images/new-journal-button}}
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title=<<now YYYY-0MM-0DD>>
tags="Journal">>" />
\end
You can make this as sophisticated as you want.
Regards
Tony
<<todayentry>>
