Special characters

    When trying to populate an option with a text that contains special characters, the special character is ignored.

    For example, I want to add the value: “C & A”, but it is saved as C & A.

    Because of this, the html validator generates an error.

    Anything I can do ?

    Looks like the wordpress forum also converts the entity code into the character.

    The entity code / special characters that I want to display is: [ampersand]amp;

    This is WordPress filtering out the entity you want. OptionTree uses built in functions to filter text.

    As an alternative, I’m pretty sure if you used a different doc type like HTML5 the validator would stop throwing this error.
