When saving anything…

Hey there, can you tell me what field the slashes are showing? is it notes? I can remove those for the next release

Okay, I tested it again.

Every field that is saved that has an apostrophe has a \ before the apostrophe.

When adding a file, where ever there is an apostrophe in the field, there is a \ except when the folder is made. That shows correctly.
in a file name, it will also show a \ before the apostrophe.

In the notes, if an apostrophe is used, there are three \\\ s before the apostrophe when the email is received. And of course, the one slash shows just as it shows after saving (in the email that is sent out).

I hope that isn’t too confusing.

got it, if I have time today I will push a release to fix this otherwise It will be tomorrow.

That’s sure appreciated..
I, for one can never remember to not write using apostrophes ..
It’s what I do best..

I am glad you are proactive with this plugin and keeping up with the things being brought to your attention.

Thanks

Hey Grace thanks, the premium users support our ongoing development keeping this plugin live! Happy to work on it

Slashes issue has been fixed in 1.4.9

This issue looks like it was around since the begining, the fix will only affect newer files. There was an addslashes() on the db variable on insert, wordpress also does this during processing so it was being added twice. Removed the addslashes() and added stripslashes() to a few more variables I saw didn’t have any.

Let me know if it works for you.

Hi smartypants,

The notes (in the email) only show one slash now before the apostrophe (three less than before.. lol).

When saving the settings. All instances of apostrophe still show the slash before the apostrophe after saving.

Thanks

I have tested the new version 1.5.0 and the “Form Instructions” saves without a slash before the apostrophe. All other fields (after saving) still wind up with a slash before the apostrophe after saving. In case you wonder, I started over each time I attempted to save with an apostrophe.

On the frontend, everything works the way it should with the apostrophe.
Progress is being made.. great job so far.

Thanks

Fixed another strip slashes in notes and revisions
