Hi bernarr, I will look into this very soon and let you know. Thanks for the heads up!
So far I’m not able to reproduce the result you’re experiencing. If you could provide some more information that would be great.
Are you running the latest version (0.4.3) of the plugin and WordPress?
What type of widget are you seeing this in; random quote, static ID quote, auto-refresh? And do you have the author, image or source boxes ticked?
If you are using a theme from the repository, what one is it so I might test using the same theme?
If you have any suggestions on how I can narrow this issue down do share them. Thanks.
I did update to the latest WP the other day when 4.6 was released, and the plugin was installed after that, so it is the latest as well. The Quotes Llama widget is set for author, source, and auto-refresh. Right now I’m using the Simple Bootstrap theme, I did try with the default 2016 theme as well, and it’s showing there as well. Seems it also does the same thing with “you’ll”, turning it into you\’ll.
… So, I took a look at the database, and apparently somewhere along the way the \ was inserted into the database preceding every ‘. Simple query fixed it..
Sorry for wasting your time, but thank you for responding so quickly!
You are very welcome! I will admit I struggle to get the escaping correct and earlier versions certainly had issues with it. I do wonder what’s happening if you used the plugin form to add them. But, if you notice it continuing I’ll take a closer look at the admin side rather than the front-end. So far it seems OK for me with creating new quotes with apostrophes and quotations.
I think it may have been from copying the quotes from another system I use on a different site. I tried adding a new quote that I typed out and used several apostrophes and they all went in fine, without the escape showing. Tried pasting from a notepad as well and that was fine too
Thanks for testing it! Closing this as resolved.
