heise.de forum threads save as generic "heise online" items
When I save a heise.de forum thread with the connector, the item always comes out the same: title "heise online", creator "heise online", and the abstract is the description of the heise homepage ("News und Foren zu Computer, IT, Wissenschaft..."). The thread title doesn't appear at all, so every thread looks like the same item and only the URL differs.
The pages themselves are fine. The HTML

The pages themselves are fine. The HTML
