It seems that I can't use Polish characters in post title. When I try to do it, then I can see error message: "Błąd: bad page name". I hope it's a bug, not a feature and you fix it soon :) --[[Paweł|ptecza]] > ikiwiki only allows a very limited set of characters raw in page names, > this is done as a deny-by-default security thing.
