Change subject: [bugfix] new regex for retrieving page titles from special page. ......................................................................
[bugfix] new regex for retrieving page titles from special page.
The title part or list elements may contain html entities which will be interpreted as section while instanciating the page and leads to an invalid title exception (e.g. invalid section in category).
Now the page title will be fetched from that part inside the <a /> tag.
