 * To resolve a (temporary) bug in Litespeed Cache ESI I’ve been instructed to add
   the following code:
 * function buffer_output_after( $content ) { 
   $content = str_replace(‘& #038;’,‘&’,
   $content); [space between & and # added on purpose]return $content; } add_filter(‘
   litespeed_buffer_after’, ‘buffer_output_after’, 0);
 * But in Code Snippets plugin editor (after saving) this is automatically replaced
   by:
   function buffer_output_after( $content ) { $content = str_replace(‘&’, ‘&’,
   $content);return $content; }
 * This replacement actually renders the entire function ineffective. Is there any
   way to achieve it within Code Snippets?

 * Hello [@developmentvict](https://wordpress.org/support/users/developmentvict/)
 * Thanks for raising your query,
 * Can you kindly share more details or perhaps send a screen recording to our support
   email as I have copied your code into a new php snippet using single quotes and
   I had no issues to do this.
 * Many thanks
