Umlauts issue Adaptavist Create Page Macro

Question

Hello. I am using the latest version of the Adaptavist Create Page Macro on Confluence 5.2.3. When I have umlauts in the Page Title field of the Macro Browser, when creating the new page the umlauts are replaced with a strange symbol. Then I have to edit the page again in order to fix it and it is very annoying.

Any ideas how can I fix that?

Thanks for your quick response. I am using the latest version of the Create Page Macro (3.0.1). When I create the page normally using a title with umlauts this behavior does not occur. So it is not a Confluence issue. Only when I create a page with the Create Page Macro this happens. Yes please report this to Adaptavist because it is really annoying having to reedit every page and change the title.

What version of the plugin are you using? In Marketplace the latest plugin is compatible up to version 5.1.5 of Confluence, so there could be a compatibility issue.

Also, if you create a page without the macro and put an umlaut in the title, does the same behavior occur? If not, I would contact Adaptavist and report this behavior as a bug. I included their contact information below:
