    Hi,

    I have a problem with addresses containing apostrophes, they are displayed on my website with a backslash.

    For example I add an entry, I go to the address metabox and add my address which is “Place de l’église”.

    I add my entry and go back to my entry in BO, the address appears now like that “Place de l\& rsquo;église”(without the space between & and r) in the metabox field and appears like that on my website “Place de l\’église”.

    Everytime I modify my entry the number of backslashes doubles. So first modification I get “Place de l\\’église”, and second modification “Place de l\\\\’église”.

    I’ve been looking for a solution but I don’t see how to fix this without touching the core.

    Thanks.

    @ Francois

    Apologies for the trouble! I located the bug and fixed it. The address text boxes were not being properly sanitized before saving the address to the database. I plan on releasing an update either tomorrow or Friday which will include this fix. Again, apologies for the trouble and inconvenience.
