I was having trouble getting the [+tags+] placeholder to work the way I wanted it for ditto, so I wrote a very basic snippet to retrieve the relevant tag from the URL:
<?php
$tags = filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'tags', FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING, FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_HIGH|FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW);
return $tags;
?>
My problem is that while I know enough to know that I can’t trust user input, I don’t know enough to be sure that I can make it secure. Is the above sufficient? Should I be doing something different or something else as well?
Thanks!
