    SOLVED - I called the hosting company and got them to remove ’magic quotes’ from their php settings.



    I’ve never come across this before but this site is being hosted with a service provider I have never used before (client-driven).

    I am just starting up with this new site and have copied and pasted the HTML code for my Home Page template. I started to cut it up into chunks when I noticed that on each save, MODx is adding slashes in front of quotation marks. On the first save, it adds 1 slash, on the next save it adds another 2 and on the next save it adds another 4 etc.!!! I have only come across something like that before within TinyMCE, but not where I am working with templates and chunks, i.e. no rich-text editor involved.

    Could this have to do with some setting on the host server? Help!!!


    Someone else asked the same question last year but without replies. http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,56063.0.html
    Hopefully someone can help this time around. Very appreciated!
