Describe the bug
Multiple layers of page inclusion are not being evaluated correctly.

Steps To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Create page A with some content.
Create page B with some content, and include page A in it. This will display correctly.
Create page C with some content, and include page B in it.
Page C will have the page C content from step 3, and the page B content from step 2, followed by the {{@123}} inclusion tag for page A, instead of page A's content.

Expected behavior
All pages to be included should be displayed correctly.

Your Configuration (please complete the following information):

Exact BookStack Version (Found in settings): 21.04
PHP Version: 7.3.29
Hosting Method (Nginx/Apache/Docker): Apache

Hi,

i think a depth of 3 layers for the page inclusion should be enoght for the most cases.
Is there any implementation Plan in the near Future for this Feature?

Regards,
jason

Up to three levels of nested has now been added within the work of PR #4192, thanks to @jasonF1000.
Will be part of the next feature release.
