Contemplative Computing

I got it! Created a template following the instructions in “other notes”

Here’s what it looks like:

<?php
/*

Jeff why do you think many people suddenly have the same problem? It was working fine for me and then immediately stopped working when I upgraded.

What I’m hearing from you is that perhaps another plugin I was previously using didn’t conflict with Theme My Login under 3.2.1, but does conflict under 3.3. Is that correct?

Looks like the escaping being done is overly escape-y. Basically every element attribute is being escaped an extra time. So I’m seeing <style type=\”text/css\”> instead of <style type=”text/css”>

Confirmed this in my own install. Clicking “Save Quiz” (wut) on the main “options page” causes the code to come back wrong, with extra backslashes and other oddities all around.
