What Happened?

When creating a page that consists of other pages inline (e.g. [[[[Hello]][[World]]]]) the page reference looks empty in the UI.

However, can create a working page like [[[[Foo]] [[Bar]]]] by renaming an existing page and it will be displayed correctly inline:

When editing the above (e.g. removing space so that [[[[Foo]] [[Bar]]]]) the inline page ref becomes empty. When re-adding the space the inline ref now displays the node references rather than the page titles.

Reproduce the Bug

1. Write [[[[Hello]][[World]]]] into a node

Hi. Pages with refs in their name have a rich history of being buggy as they introduce a lot of edge cases. This bugginess isn't something specific to the db version and so it's less interesting unless you're proposing the behavior change for the db version

@logseq-cldwalker hey, my perspective for alpha test:

• Me: I try to break things and file bug reports
• You: Decide what and how to fix it

I have no insight into what might cause proper issues with DB concistency vs. what's just a small visual thing So no worries about ignoring any of the issues I'm raising - some seem very niche to me too :)

Regarding "proposing behaviour change" for nested page refs: I do believe this could be useful. But if a feature has a "a rich history of being buggy" and there are more important things to build -> maybe you should forbid nested references for now, same as you did with /
