• In the stripslashes_deep() documentation it tells how to turn off php’s magic quotes, but it doesn’t mention that now WP has its own magic quotes malarky that will insert slashes even if magic_quotes_gpc is turned off in the php.ini file.

    This leads to the ‘best practices’ mentioned on this page to no longer working.

    This documentation needs to be changed to mention WordPress’ new recapitulation of the PHP misadventure (which they are getting rid of), and to tell users how to turn if off (comment out the call to wp_magic_quotes() in wp-settings.php).
