I want to upgrade my site to php 5.1.2 but it seems that magic_quotes_gpc will be set to off and since my host is running php as cgi I'm not sure if putting php_'flag magic_quotes_gpc On' in my .htaccess file will work. What I need to know is if having magic_quotes_gpc off will have a negative effect on efiction 3.1.1?
And if so, and it turns out that 'php_flag magic_quotes_gpc On' doesn't work, is there another way to turn them on with php running as cgi?
I searched for magic_quotes_gpc but the only posts I found were for eFiction 1.1
There isn't a problem on my site, so no template.
There's a function header.php to handle it if magic_quotes isn't on. It should take care if it for you.
Thanks for the quick reply Tammy!
There are forward slashes before quotes and apostrophes in story titles. Other than that, it works perfectly.
Where?
I've already fixed the one on my main site, but as you can see if you go to my test site here http://stuff.devianthearts.com/index.php they only show up when using the smaller title and chapter text boxes and even then, only if you're editing an old story or if you preview a story before uploading it.
That being said, it's not a major issue because all one has to do is remove the slashes from the textboxes before clicking add story. To be clear, it's the title and chapter title text areas that are having this problem. Everything else seems to be working nicely.
I've only tested once, but the slashes in the story titles seems to be fixed with the 3.2 update, however, they still show up in the chapter titles.
Still showing up in chapter titles if you preview and story title if you go to edit story.
They are also showing up in the new titles and unlike the stories there's no way around these. You can still get around the ones for the stories by just directly adding the story with no preview.
Hate to bother you with this again, but they're showing in the shoutbox as well.
