Hey Everyone,

I have just started a new campaign page, and am attempting to make the main page of the wiki link to several other sections of the wiki. However, the Wiki link tool doesn't seem to work.



When i use the Wiki Link tool i get a result that looks like this



[[Religions of Meridian: Shae and The Shae Bearers | Shae]]



When i preview or submit the changes it continues to display as above. 



Am I doing something wrong? Can someone explain what i should do?



Thanks

    I am pretty certain the : is breaking it.

     

    I inserted a colon into a few of my links and saw the same result as you describe.

     

    Remake the page to not include a colon in the title.

    I was afraid of this



    The colon was a part of the Titles of the wiki pages. As far as i know, there isn't any way to change the titles without deleting the Wiki page and remaking it



    am I wrong?

    You are correct.  Special characters are not a good thing in titles of any page on OP.

    Just trying to help out.

    @Own3ed_U2 Fortunently, it's pretty easy to cut/copy & paste the code to a new page. The crappy part comes when you find a mistake like this after tying links to the page already and you have to hunt down all the old links and change those to match the new one.
