Is there any reason why this might be happening, and why it does not happen all the time?

When using PHP 7.4 I get the following depreciated warning:

Function get_magic_quotes_gpc() is deprecated

I understand this is a warning but depending on what Admin page I am on in the backend, there is some considerable time added to database queries/page load times in the backend.

Kind regards,

Simon

Here is my template:

<div class="trip-container">
	<h2>{@post_title}</h2>
	<div class="content">
		<img src="{@post_thumbnail_url.medium}" />
		<span><strong>Date: </strong>{@trip_date}</span>[if trip_time] - <span><strong>Departure: </strong>{@trip_time}</span>[/if]
		<p class="details">{@trip_details}</p>
		<div class="location-name"><strong>Location: </strong>{@trip_location.name}</div>
		<div class="location-address">{@trip_location.location_address}</div>
	</div>
</div>

This works fine, however, some times there may not be a location at all or a location address may not be appropriate to display.
So I only want these parts to show if they have a value.

I have tried:
[if @trip_locations.location_address]<div class="location-address">{@trip_location.location_address}</div>[/if]

AND

[if {@trip_locations.location_address}]<div class="location-address">{@trip_location.location_address}</div>[/if]

and it doesn’t work…

Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers,
Rick

It seems to evolve around the PHP code “magic quotes” has been deprecated and was finally removed in PHP 7: https://php.net/manual/de/security.magicquotes.php

Can anyone help? I am not a developer, but maybe there is a quick fix around this problem. Is Mailchimp reading this forum?

Thanks a lot!

The other problem is that if I use the HTML code for the apostrophe that is ', the last keyword is doubled.

I tried to turn off magic quotes on htacces adding: magic_quotes_gpc Off php_flag without result.

Note that plugin version is: 2.2.7.1
Page where can see the problem: (test site)

Someone could help-me

I found out that some core functions expects escaped values and some don’t…..

e.g.

wp_insert_post expects all data to be escaped.
wpdb->update/insert/delete expects all data to not to be escaped…

How do I know when to escape and not?? I will not talk about implementations of actions (I guess i would need to dig through each actions and see what core functions it is calling and if i need to escape or not??)

Is there a list/guideline for this? All is so confusing….

I think I miss something (a config?); developing in wp shouldn’t be that insecured right?

if ( get_magic_quotes_gpc() ) {
$_POST = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_POST );
$_GET = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_GET );
$_COOKIE = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_COOKIE );
$_REQUEST = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_REQUEST );
}

Nothing changed and the alert is still on my customer’s page and she thinks I don’t know what. I am doing. Guess what? In this case, she is right. How did others resolve this, and more interestingly why has it not been corrected in a later version. I would be willing to donate!

At the very least, that link should hopefully go to a page that has the real solution.

I don’t know why but, it’s fine everywhere else but WP keeps escaping quotes for headers. And I can’t get rid of this problem. For example :

<h3 style="\"text-align:" center;\">Lorem Ipsum</h3>

If I switch <h3> to a <p> everything is ok.

Can someone help me please ?

HELP! I was just trying to fix a calendar error using this entry:

Your diagnostic was the good : it’s a problem of magic quotes.
Here a fix : paste the following code in functions.php of your theme :
<?php if ( get_magic_quotes_gpc() ) { $_POST = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_POST ); $_GET = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_GET ); $_COOKIE = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_COOKIE ); $_REQUEST = array_map( ‘stripslashes_deep’, $_REQUEST ); } ?>

I pasted it in the right php doc and now I can’t get in to change anything!
Everything is down. I am still logged in to the WP admin but everytime I click the error pops up… what to do??!!!

Your server has PHP magic_quotes_gpc set to active. This produces formatting errors in the Ajax Event Calendar plugin.
Learn how to disable this setting in this forum thread. Ask your host provider for help.

I was told to add this to a php.ini file and put it in the theme folder.

You should be able to turn off magic_quotes_gpc by creating a custom php.ini file and the add the following line into it.
============
magic_quotes_gpc = Off
============

I did that but the alert above is still showing. Advice anyone
