    Hi
    Great plugin, but with the latest update something happened. I can no longer make First Name to a link like this – Abraham Lincoln two quotation marks gets added and corrupt the link. It links to “index.php/abraham-lincoln-quotes” instead for index.php/abraham-lincoln-quotes
    How can I remove those two quotation marks in my First Name link?
    Thanks in advance.

    Could you please provide a url to the example you are speaking of so I can get a better idea of what is going on? Linking directly to a quote, let alone an authors first name, is not something this plugin is capable of yet, at least I thought so, Thanks.

    You have the strangest setup I have yet to see. I really like your site!

    To start me off I have a few questions:
    1. Have you edited the plugin code and made changes to it?
    2. Are you entering the authors first or last name as a hyperlink instead of plain text? For example: <a href=
    3. Are you running the latest version 0.6.3?

    Am I correct that you are only using my plugin in your widget area? The rest seems to be hard-coded. Thanks!

    1. I have not.
    2. Authors first name – Abraham Lincoln as you can in this image https://quotesopedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Quotes-llama.jpg
    3- Yes I am.

    Yes, I am only using your plugin in my widget area. And this “set up” ?? I’m using have worked before this plugin got updated. Thanks for your interest in my problem.

    I’d not tried linking a quote that way yet. It even sparks the idea of having another table to hold profile information to have a page like yours built dynamically… but then, things to work out first.

    I’ll get this issue working soon and supported further if needed. I can reproduce what you are seeing so I have that advantage here. I have other escape issues I am unable to reproduce and think perhaps you have provided a clue into solving those as well. Thanks for the responsive reply! I’ll let you know.

    Okay great.

    I think I’ve made some good progress. Handling HTML within a text string has brought up a few other issues, like if you try to edit your Abraham Lincoln quote it just trashes the data in the form fields (don’t save it that way). I have that working too now in the next update.

    I think I am about ready to upload it, but just want to test and think about it some more. Perhaps tomorrow.

    If you are interested ( https://oooorgle.com/testing ) check out the test site. It is setup for your example atm. I don’t have an Abraham Lincoln page so it just hits a 404. I am having issue still on the page view (which I know you don’t use). Overall I think the issue you are having is worked out. Let me know if the widget section at least looks correct? Thanks!
