    The upgrades 4.5.7 and 4.6.0 turns the following html labels into text; eg
    “a href=”cla.asn.au/News/join-renew-donate/?add-to-cart=10783”> removed to aid your visibility and show as text in this example

    I have rolled back the update to 4.5.6 where all works.

    Images of what it should look like and does after upgrade are at:
    As 4.5.6 – see https://cla.asn.au/images/4.5.6.jpg which is as it should show and
    As 4.6.0 corrupted into text not html – see https://cla.asn.au/images/4.6.0.jpg

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello @gaffercanberra

    Is not possible to include HMTL inside labels, labels should be plain text

    I’m afraid there was a missing scaping in the previous versions, and we were forced to include this to feet WordPress requirements

    Thanks, but a bit of a bummer as the plugin responded well to what was needed on the checkout page using both logic, link and colour. This enabled a last chance for upselling at a better point than the cart page where the customer is more focused on moving through the process of buying. Incidentally, this approach was attracting purchases as you could tell by product purchase combinations.

    Any thoughts of how the plugin could achieve the outcome using another of its features?

    This must have also been a recent requirement of WordPress as I do note that your Quadlayers plugin ‘Features’ include “Add html to fields label”

    Also, can you point me to the “Replace Text using Text/ Html Swapper” (WP Plugin page) feature and how it operates as I will try and explore that.

    @gaffercanberra yes we have to update plugin descriptions and images

    I guess the best option for you is to rollback to previous versions

    Folks
    Thanks, but holding back on plugin version updates is not something I wish to do.

    I have developed work around that, while not ideal, achieves the client’s outcome.

    I have modified via WooCommerce template process the form-billing.php file. The down side is I need to keep an eye on it for upgrades.

    we understand your frustration but we were forced to take some drastic decisions to keep this plugin up to date, as at the state of the art before our arrive only destiny for this product was the garbage
