Extension:Popups configuration

I just enabled this on my wiki. I have noticed that the default configuration of the popups will seem to only read text from pages and not categories. It may not have been good practice but 15 years ago, many content pages were created as a category page.

Example: https://dardpi.ca/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Locomotives

Secondly, the majority of pages and categories use the NOTITLE magic word to hide whether it was a page or category and the first line on the page was a heading followed by text. Popups is not reading anything from these types of pages and I can't possibly change 1000s of pages. I have been either unable to find or understand how I might configure my way around these obstacles.

Example: See main page link to Apple Industry in the first paragraph:

https://dardpi.ca/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page

https://dardpi.ca/wiki/index.php?title=Apple_Trains

In relation to point 2 above - I've asked a question in Topic:W9zk2k64gagu4k75 (on the TextExtracts talk page) about whether it would be possible to get the summary instead from a specified template parameter value - I'd be really grateful to know about that! Thanks. EDIT: I think I've sorted that one out :-)
