    Another plugin is pulling category headings from Connections and displaying them (http://villageatsunriver.com/village-map/) but the ambersand is displaying as a the HTML code
    &.

    I tried changing the & to the HTML Code within the category title, but it reverts back to the & when saved.

    Any thoughts on updating CSS for the the other plugin page to force the proper encoding?

    Hard to know, my best guess is the other plugin should do an HTML entity decode when displaying the category name. If you share the other plugin code, I can probably pinpoint it fairly quickly.

    Whoops, I meant to respond to this a loonnnnggg time ago. What would be the best way to share the plugin code with you? It was a custom PHP job that was inherited with the website.

    If you could toss it on on Github that would be best. Alternatively, a Dropbox/OneDrive share would work or you could upload it to your site and send me the download link.

    Ok, this is written using Angular.js something which I have no experience with.

    I suspect that you will have to edit line 12 in the village-shop-list.html file.

    Currently it is <h3>{{shopcatname}}</h3>

    I suspect it needs to be something like this <h3>renderHtml(shopcatname)</h3> or this <h3>renderHtml({{shopcatname}})</h3> or maybe this <h3>{{renderHtml(shopcatname)}}</h3>. I think it might be the last one based on a quick look into the syntax for Angular templating.

    In regards to the CSS, I’m sorry, I’m not exactly certain what you’re asking.

    Sorry to hear that. Perhaps the renderHtml() function is not in scope.
