Try setting up a very simple example using wikiforms and a field of type "title" plus one or 2 other test fields of any type. Enter "Servername" in the text box of the field of type title and wikiforms should take care of the rest. It should automatically wrap the entered text in a (:title:) directive and on editing, strip this out so that the above error doesn't occur. Let me know if this fixes the problem. If not, could you provide a link to a page that displays the undesirable behaviour? I am guessing that the (:title ... :) is confusing the wikiforms regular expression. This would be why I added a title field type.
