      Issue Summary

      Include Page macro doesn't return any search results when searching for a page title that includes colons.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Insert the Include Page macro on a page
      2. Click in the search box below Page to include 
      3. Copy and paste the page title into the search box 
      4. No results are displayed

      Expected Results

      Searching on the full title, which includes colons, should return the page in the search results. Searching for a portion of the title with colons should return the page in the search results.

      Actual Results

      Including colons in the search, returns no results. If there is a space in the title and you delete characters from the end of the string at some point the results do populate, even when there are still colons in the string.

      Workaround

      Search using the characters up until the first colon. If there are spaces in the title copy and paste the full title and delete characters from the end until the search returns results.
      Alternative Steps - Option 1 (only if the title contains spaces in the name)

      1. Insert the Include Page macro on a page
      2. Click in the search box below Page to include 
      3. Copy and paste the page title into the search box
      4. Begin deleting characters from end of string
      5. Eventually search results will return

      Alternative Steps - Option 2

      1. Insert the Include Page macro on a page
      2. Click in the search box below Page to include 
      3. Search for the first word in the page title before the colon
      4. Results are returned
