[Plugin: Advanced Events Registration] Custom email links - extra slash marks (2 posts)

    When trying to add a link within the custom email (in event setup mode), extra slashes are being added within the link each and every time I update the event item.

    Example:

    <p>To review your registration information, or to complete online payment, click on the link below:</p>
    <p><strong><a href=\\\"[payment_url]\\\">[payment_url]</a></strong></p>

    I updated this event twice and the slash marks were added within the url for the link. The first update added single slash marks in front and behind, and a second update added two extra slash marks in front and behind.

    Is there a fix for this?

    Thanks!

    Is there some way to

    Hey there,

    I had the same problem and im not sure of a fix through coding.

    I got around the problem by inserting ASCII Codes when I needed to - use http://www.ascii.cl/htmlcodes.htm for details.

    So when I needed to add a html link I would use " inplace of "

    Note that when ever you make changes to anything on the configure organisation page you will need to re-input those ASCII codes otherwise it will revert back to the \\

    I have found so far that both " and ' turn into back slashes - Is this an sql or php thing?

    Hope that helps
