# Escaping Quote (") Characters

 * Thanks for the plugin. It’s been helpful.
 * One thing I noticed today though is that if there are special characters (” at
   least, possibly others) in the description of a picture on Google+, they are 
   not escaped in the short-code. So then you either get a short description or 
   no description (as in my case because the ” was at the start of the string). 
   You need to escape these somehow, or change them to single quotes (‘) or something.
 * I tried escaping them by hand with a \ and that didn’t work either, so I ended
   up changing them by hand to a single quote. It would be nice for this to happen
   automatically.
 * Overall a great plugin. I’d like it a little more integrated and a little more
   user friendly, but at least now I can get my pics from Google+ in 🙂
