 * Hi [@alltomtrav](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alltomtrav/) , with WPTB
   1.5.1, we were trying to fix a security issue. An unintended consequence of this
   security fix is that some text are breaking (along with some other features).
   The reason this text is breaking is that sometimes, these unicode characters 
   can be used by bad actors to perform XSS (Cross Site Scripting). We are working
   on a fix and a new version is already in testing. It should be released soon.
   In the meantime, we recommend you do not modify your tables while you are in 
   1.5.1 and roll back to 1.5.0 if necessary.
