 * Hi Everyone,
 * I’m using the the “Plugin Check” Plugin to review the plugin (displayed at [https:Manna-network.com/demo](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-plugin-check-plugin/Manna-network.com/demo?output_format=md))
   before submitting to the WordPress repo. The checker generated a ton of errors
   all related to escaping the plugin’s output to the browser. I’ve gone through
   and “fixed” about a third of them (using esc_attr()) but it doesn’t “feel” right
   and am asking if I am doing it right? I am seeing that everything that the checker
   is requiring me to escape is 100% trusted content from my own database. It seems
   all these calls to the esc_attr function are redundant and unnecessary. Am I 
   missing something? Am I correct but it’s “just the way it is” etc.? Thanks.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fthe-plugin-check-plugin%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_
