On the topic listing pages, the anchor tags for the topics are being displayed showing the full HTML rather than just the topic name. For example, I have a topic called "Here is another one ...", which is showing as follows:

<a href="/web/forum/here-another-one/219">&lt;a href=&quot;/web/forum/here-another-one/219&quot;&gt;Here is another one ...&lt;/a&gt;</a>

Just to be clear, it is being displayed just as it is above, with the "<a href", etc. Also on the main forum page, I have a forum section called "News & Events", which is being displayed as "News &amp;amp Events".

That's not the same problem but, since the original issue didn't have much to it, I'll just adjust the title. Unassigning it, unless you are planning on fixing it as well?

ok. i'm trying to fix this now for me because i don't know anything about the patching, uploading and sharing system. I never tried this.

Well, if you find what's causing the problem, even just pasting the bad code in here would help. I won't kill you if it's not a proper patch. ;) I just haven't had a chance to look into it, yet.
