Extra slash on template save!

First, you should make sure that setting magic_quotes to Off actually worked - you can see it in your phpinfo(). Some hosts or servers may be configured in such a way that you can’t override it with .htaccess or a php.ini file in the site root.

Once you’re sure the setting is Off, the extra slashes that may have been introduced won’t just go away - you unfortunately have to remove them manually.

If that isn’t the problem, and your system continues to introducing new slashes on every save, even with magic_quotes Off, then I’m stumped.. not sure what to think in that case.

when I set the magic_quote off by .htaccess it gives 500ie and by the use of php.ini it makes parse error!, Anyway the server admin is aware of the issue since all the websites are using modx and as i said before this is not just the issue of 1.0.5, all the websites using other versions are also affected by the server upgrade.
