@Mike I can see that you are using the tag "Journal" instead of "Memory". 
Maybe you forgot to change this in the example code I gave?

So <$list filter="[is[current]tag[Memory]]"> should be <$list 
filter="[is[current]tag[Journal]]">.

Having said that it still doesn't explain what I am seeing in your 
screenshot. If your test doesn't have any personal data would you be 
willing to share it as an attachment? It will be easier to diagnose that 
way.

>>> Is it possible to have the date picker appear in the `field value` 
input box to simplify entry of `memory-date` instead?

Instead of the tag "$:/tags/ViewTemplate" you could use the tag 
"$:/tags/EditTemplate". It does the same thing but transcludes the content 
in edit mode rather than view mode. This won't look very neat, but I'm just 
giving you a quick and simple way to do it.
