Apostrophes being escaped on options page output WordPress
- SOLVED
http://www.pandagaming.com.au/
The content is not run off posts but is from a wordpress options panel.
The content being saved in the options panel is escaping ' this and outputing /'
How can I add a function to eliminate this problem.
This is sample of how items are retrieved:
<div class="pic"></div><?php $pandagaming_01_title = get_option('pandagaming_01_title'); ?><?php $pandagaming_01_desc = get_option('pandagaming_01_desc'); ?>
<div class="box"> <span id="lobster3" class="greendark"><?php echo $pandagaming_01_title; ?></span>
<p><?php echo $pandagaming_01_desc; ?></p>
</div>
As you see there is no wordpress loop.

Tried that didn't seem to budge the /'
do I need to define esc_attr in functions?
pandragon comments:
<?php echo stripslashes($pandagaming_01_title); ?>
Worked a treat! Thanks John :) Wouldn't have gotten there without you!
John Cotton comments:
Sorry, stripslashes was what I meant - esc_attr goes the other way.....it's too late in the day!!!!
