SyntaxHighlighter plugin displays “>” as “= & g t ;”

Pull request: https://github.com/Viper007Bond/syntaxhighlighter/pull/109

Fixed by correcting the plugin PHP code: https://developernote.com/2019/05/making-syntaxhighlighter-plugin-display-symbol-correctly/

For me this code not work, I’m using 5.2.1 version of wordpress. The characters “<” and “>” still printing “& g t;” and “& l t ;” when I’m editing a post.

@leoloko do you still see those characters with WordPress 5.2.2? Are you using a SyntaxHighlighter block in Gutenberg.

I created a SyntaxHighlighter block in WP 5.2.2 and I can’t replicate the < and > problem.

From this thread I found #108 and this stands out for me.

Workaround: if I preview/publish using an account with role “Editor” or “Admin” everything works as expected and I get…

Can you confirm what role your user had when you wrote the post that had the problem?

A filter can help you. See this thread, precisely this post.

The bug to the plugin is not interesting and nobody gonna solve it? I correctly understand? I’ve installed the plugin a long time ago, and now many pages are used with it in the site! The updates wordpress and the plugin are installed recently but what’s the use of it. All that pages now about crashed! The advice meant here are not working with word “at all”.

[code language=""html""]
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
[/code]
