 * First of all, Instruct is an awesome plugin. Actually, I’m experiencing a big
   issue.
 * When I insert an hyperlink and the update the page; the hyperlinks gets broken.
   
   For Example: I add the link to [http://www.something.com](http://www.something.com)
   after the update action the link href is: \”[http://www.something.com](http://www.something.com)\”
   so, it doesn’t work.
 * Any help would be appreciated.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * UPDATE:
    I figured out how to deal with the problem. Adding stripslashes in:
 * admin-form.php
    Line 50: <?php wp_editor(stripslashes($instructions->description),’
   description’); ?>
 * admin-table.php
 * Line 196: $html = wp_editor(stripslashes($item[‘text’]), ‘text’.$item[‘id’], 
   array(‘textarea_rows’ => 5));
    shortcode.php Line 38: $html .= “<p>”.stripslashes(
   $instructions->description).”</p>”;
 * I hope that it helps in someone else have to deal with the problem.
 * Again, thank for the wonderful work with this plugin. Simple but awesome.
