Title: Getting PHP Majic Error Message Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Getting PHP Majic Error Message * [jatrock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jatrock/) * (@jatrock) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-php-majic-error-message/) * Your server has PHP magic_quotes_gpc set to active. This produces formatting errors in the Ajax Event Calendar plugin. * How do I fix this? * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ajax-event-calendar/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ajax-event-calendar/) Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) * [obragblog](https://wordpress.org/support/users/obragblog/) * (@obragblog) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-php-majic-error-message/#post-3324497) * I contacted my webhost and asked them to turn off magic quotes for after trying the different things I found here in the forums. * my phpinfo file shows them set to off but I still get the warning AND I still get the slashes when I use an apostrophe… * Would sure like to figure this out. I love this plugin but there are some times when it’s difficult not to use an apostrophe! * [erifnosgip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/erifnosgip/) * (@erifnosgip) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-php-majic-error-message/#post-3324516) * Have a related issue… maybe. Just installed Ajax Event Calendar yesterday. The following displays at the top of every screen. * “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.” * However, I do not have the apostrophe problem. Just would like to not have the message. So, my question is, how do I make the message go away? * Ajax Event Calendar 1.0.4 Wordpress 3.5.1 PHP 5.3 * Thanks * [LZScout](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lzscout/) * (@lzscout) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-php-majic-error-message/#post-3324517) * I too am still getting the “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 don’t have the apostrophe problem either even though I have been unable to turn Magic Quotes off. If it was the upgrade to Ajax Event Calendar 1.0.4 that caused this, can’t the developer come up with a fix? * Core PHP Version 5.3.14 * Directive Local Value Master Value allow_call_time_pass_reference Off Off allow_url_fopen On On allow_url_include Off Off always_populate_raw_post_data Off Off arg_separator. input & & arg_separator.output & & asp_tags Off Off auto_append_file no value no value auto_globals_jit On On auto_prepend_file no value no value browscap no value no value default_charset no value no value default_mimetype text/html text/html define_syslog_variables Off Off disable_classes no value no value disable_functions no value no value display_errors On On display_startup_errors Off Off doc_root no value no value docref_ext no value no value docref_root no value no value enable_dl On On error_append_string no value no value error_log no value no value error_prepend_string no value no value error_reporting 30711 30711 exit_on_timeout Off Off expose_php Off Off extension_dir ./ ./ file_uploads On On highlight.bg# FFFFFF #FFFFFF highlight.comment #FF8000 #FF8000 highlight.default #0000BB #0000BB highlight.html #000000 #000000 highlight.keyword #007700 #007700 highlight.string# DD0000 #DD0000 html_errors On On ignore_repeated_errors Off Off ignore_repeated_source Off Off ignore_user_abort Off Off implicit_flush Off Off include_path .:/usr/ local/php5_3/lib/php .:/usr/local/php5_3/lib/php log_errors Off Off log_errors_max_len 1024 1024 magic_quotes_gpc On On magic_quotes_runtime Off Off magic_quotes_sybase Off Off mail.add_x_header Off Off mail.force_extra_parameters no value no value mail.log no value no value max_execution_time 30 30 max_file_uploads 20 20 max_input_nesting_level 64 64 max_input_time 60 60 max_input_vars 1000 1000 memory_limit 64M 64M open_basedir no value no value output_buffering no value no value output_handler no value no value post_max_size 33M 33M precision 14 14 realpath_cache_size 16K 16K realpath_cache_ttl 120 120 register_argc_argv On On register_globals Off Off register_long_arrays Off Off report_memleaks On On report_zend_debug On On request_order no value no value safe_mode Off Off safe_mode_exec_dir no value no value safe_mode_gid Off Off safe_mode_include_dir ~ ~ sendmail_from [me@localhost.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-php-majic-error-message/me@localhost.com?output_format=md) [me@localhost.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-php-majic-error-message/me@localhost.com?output_format=md) sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i serialize_precision 100 100 short_open_tag On On SMTP relay-hosting.secureserver.net relay-hosting. secureserver.net smtp_port 25 25 sql.safe_mode Off Off track_errors Off Off unserialize_callback_func no value no value upload_max_filesize 32M 32M upload_tmp_dir /tmp /tmp user_dir no value no value user_ini.cache_ttl 300 300 user_ini.filename .user.ini .user. ini variables_order GPCS GPCS xmlrpc_error_number 0 0 xmlrpc_errors Off Off y2k_compliance On On zend.enable_gc On On Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) The topic ‘Getting PHP Majic Error Message’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/ajax-event-calendar_fdcdf9.svg) * [Event Calendar](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ajax-event-calendar/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ajax-event-calendar/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ajax-event-calendar/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ajax-event-calendar/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ajax-event-calendar/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ajax-event-calendar/reviews/) * 3 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [LZScout](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lzscout/) * Last activity: [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-php-majic-error-message/#post-3324517) * Status: not resolved
