Mark entity safe and reinstall escape -- make title display right Change to explicitly mark the string entity — as safe and reinstate escaping of doctitle. If this worked in the past maybe auto-escaping wasn't turned on. If it is in the newer versions of sphinx's jinja |safe is needed now (and |e isn't, but it doesn't seem to cause double escaping so....).
