search function in projects

    I have been using a wp data access project to create data entry forms.
    Works like a charm.
    Recently, I have noticed a difference of behaviour in the search function. I store permanent hyperlinks, sometimes as a key value. Often, this is the most distinct value in a record. For a couple of days now, when I enter a hyperlink in the search function, e.g.
    https://resolver.kb.nl/resolve?urn=ddd:000021342:mpeg21:a0007
    I no longer find the corresponding record. Checking the value in the search box, the string has been converted to
    https-resolver-kb-nl-resolveurnddd000021342mpeg21a0007
    I imagine this has something to do with preventing sql insertion.
    Is this a bug or is it intended behaviour?
    Thanks for two very powerful plugins, I use both wp data access and wp code to power my site.

    Hi Frans,

    Good observation!! 🙂

    It was not to prevent SQL injection, but I was indeed tighten security. Looks like this was too tight. 😉 Sorry for that. Let me look into this and find a better alternative for the next update.

    Thank you for reporting,
    Peter
