    I have user’s with emails that have apostrophes in them.

    When that user logs in the apostrophe gets escaped and then it doesn’t pass validation.

    On line 103 of swpl_engine.php add stripslashes() function to fix this.

    $user = get_user_by('email', stripslashes( $email ) );

    Apostrophes in email addresses are valid I only found this out recently.

    Hello Maxaud, I am glad that you took your time to point it. Emails with apostrophe are rare but exists, that’s true. I’ll definitely modify the code to support this. Thanks.
