      Issue Summary

      If an entry backlink references a database with a page-related field OR Jira issue details as its main field, smart links will display “Unnamed Entry” until clicked into. If the page is refreshed, the entries will once again appear as “Unnamed entry”.

      This is reproducible on Data Center: No

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create 2 databases (I.e. DB 1 and DB 2)
      2. Define the left-most column as a page link field for the databases.
      3. Add rows with links to Confluence pages in the first column
      4. Add an entry link field in DB 2 that references DB 1
        1. Observe that the entry link field resolves fine
      5. Add a backlink entry field in DB 1 that references DB 2
        1. Observe that the backlink field does not resolve

      Expected Results

      Smart link values resolve as expected and the page names are displayed

      Actual Results

      Smart link values appear as "Unnamed entry" and are updated when clicked on. However, refreshing the page will revert the entries to "Unnamed entry"

      Workaround

      The workaround is to click the entries for the smart link values to load accordingly. However, these values will not persist if the page is refreshed.

      Note: values are still linked correctly, the problem is solely related to how the smart link values are rendered.
