Hi. I'm running SMW bundle 1.8, SF 2.5.1 on MW 1.19.3 I have the following in a form: ! Master enquiry: | {{{field|Master Enquiry|input type=dropdown|restricted}}} When I save the form it gets changed in the actual form itself to: ! [[Master enquiry]]: | {{{field|Master Enquiry|input type=dropdown|restricted}}} What on earth is going on here? Surely this is just wiki markup at this point. It struck me that I have a page called Master Enquiry. So I tried: ! Master enquire: | {{{field|Master Enquiry|input type=dropdown|restricted}}} and it saves correctly without the [ ]. So as a test I tried: ! Main Page: | {{{field|Master Enquiry|input type=dropdown|restricted}}} and lo and behold this gets saved as: ! [Main Page]: | {{{field|Master Enquiry|input type=dropdown|restricted}}} So it looks like something is converting any text within the form that coincidentally has a matching page in the wiki to a link to that page in the form. This is not happening elsewhere in the wiki, only in forms. I can only assume this is not intended behaviour?
This was after an upgrade from SMW 1.7 to 1.8. So I imported content into a new clean install and the problem has gone away.
