Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Magic quotes are disabling links and images in sidebarI think I understand. For additional context, this only seems to be happening via the Enhanced Text Widget — other code on the site seems to be fine. But for example, I’ll try to add something via this feature and enter the content as
<a href="http://illinoisaap.org/about/help-support-icaap/"><img src="http://illinoisaap.org/wp-content/uploads/become_a_member.png" align="left"></a>and as soon as I click Save it gets turned into
<a href=\"http://illinoisaap.org/about/help-support-icaap/\"><img src=\"http://illinoisaap.org/wp-content/uploads/become_a_member.png\" align=\"left\"></a>which, of course, breaks the links. I believe this is the escaping you referred to?
Before I mucked everything up, the above link was working just fine on our homepage, but I clicked on it to take a look and then clicked Save, and it broke.
Like I said , if I could find a corresponding HTML file on my server that actually held this content, I would just open it up and fix it in the code manually, but this segment of the page appears to be generated entirely by scripts.
If there’s additional code you’d like me to post, let me know, but since I’m doing this through the WordPress GUI (via the widgets page) I don’t have a lot to go on.
Thanks.

In reply to: Magic quotes are disabling links and images in sidebarHi jholder,
Thanks for the quick reply. Can you please specify where I should add the code you provided — which file? And does it matter where in the hierarchy of the original code I place it?
Thanks!
