    We are using gwolle guestbook to allow people to arrange lifts. The initial point of contact is by email and are asking the guests to add their email address to the content of the message. When viewed as an entry the word null is added after the @ sign (eg [email protected]. This is not showing in the guestbook entry and therefore I cannot find a way to remove it. Any ideas? We are using the guest book on a protected page, but this problem also happens when the page is not protected. Thank you for your help.

    Hi, The problem above is because I am also using obfuscate email, which alters the email address to deter bots but the address is still viewed as a normal address on the page. In the Guest Book the changes are being made to the email address but the display changes are not in force.Any ideas how I can overcome this?

    Hi. Here I get the normal display of an email address if I add it to the content.
    Which plugin do you use for obfuscating?

    Hi,
    Thank you for getting back to me. The plug in is just called Obfuscate Email (Scott Reilly).

    Ah, I see it. It is a simple fix, it has to do with more specific CSS.
    You can add the plugin Simple Custom CSS, or have any other way to add CSS that you prefer.

    Adding this code should make it work fine:

    #gwolle_gb  span.oe_displaynone {
    display: none;
}
