Title: Backslashes disappearing Last modified: February 23, 2020 --- # Backslashes disappearing * Resolved [asherber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asherber/) * (@asherber) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/backslashes-disappearing/) * Plugin does just what I want, except for one issue it took me a while to find. * I’m adding JS to a particular page. The code includes a regex valdation, like/\ d{1,3}/.test(value). When I save the page, the backslashes are removed and don’t show up when the page is rendered on my website. Obviously, this changes the regex. * I tried using two backslashes. This got everything to work, since only one of the two got removed on save. But when I edited the page again, my code only showed a single backslash, and when I saved the page, that one got removed as well. * I was able to work around this by using [0-9] instead of \d, but it would be nice to see this addressed.
