All line breaks converted to "n" string

Hi Isao,

thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

The likely reason for this is another plugin that somehow interferes with the saving process of TablePress, by stripping slashes from the code. This apparently breaks all line breaks (which internally are codes as “\n”).

My suggestion here is to temporarily deactivate all other plugins and switch to the WordPress Default theme. Then, check if this problem persists, or if everything works as expected. Then, you can activate the other plugins again, one by one, to find the plugin that is causing this.
If you can’t find anything with this method, I’d be more than happy to take a direct look at your admin area. In that case, please send me an email (the address is in the main plugin file “tablepress.php”).

Switching back to WP-Table Reloaded is not an option, as WP-Table Reloaded is outdated will no longer be maintained or developed.

Regards,
Tobias

Hello,

Thanks for your quick and kind reply!
I could specified the plugin which causes the trouble (“Welcart” e-commerce plugin for Japanese market).
Unfortunately, I couldn’t figure out the reason after code check of Welcart…

Hi,

great to hear that you found the plugin that causes this!
After checking the code, I can confirm that “Welcart” causes this.
The reason is line 2186 in the function main() in the file usceshop.class.php.

There, the plugin performs a stripslashes() on ALL data that is transmitted! This is a severe problem, and the plugin shouldn’t be doing that! It should only do that with data that is transmitted to its own functions.
(In fact, this could actually break post content. For example, try writing a post or page with content like “test \n dummy foobar”. After saving that while Welcart is activated, the backslash will be gone.)

I recommend that you contact the Welcart plugin author about this, as this severe issue must be fixed in the plugin. There’s nothing I can do about this in TablePress ??

Tobias

Dear Tobias,

First, I’m very pleased for your kind support.
And, frankly speaking, I’m surprised for your kindness.
Thank you so much.

I will contact Welcart’s author about this problem,
and report you later.

Thanks again,
Isao Yoshikoshi

Hi,

sure, no problem! You are very welcome!
I hope that the Welcart author can fix this in his plugin.

Best wishes,
Tobias

P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!

Hello,

Welcart’s author have updated the plugin and fixed the probleｍ.
I confirmed that conflict is solved.

Thanks again for your kind support!
