WordPress removed semicolons from HTML

  • On one of the sites I manage, I had HTML start showing up online after the last upgrade to 4.0.1. We were using       for spaces but it seems to have dropped the semicolon and now if you view source on the page from a browser it shows up as &#160 &#160 &#160. Of course this means that I get &#160 &#160 &#160 showing up on the page. I’ve tested it and I can go in and manually put the semicolons back in….but I’m curious about why this happened and what I can do to keep it from happening again or even fix it without having to go add tons of semicolons on the pages that have these.

    Thank you!

    I was afraid of that…the code I wanted to show in the backticks disappeared. hehe. Let’s try that again.

    We using &#160 with a semicolon and they were changed to &#038 #160 with a semicolon after the 38.
