Group names including escape character

Ian 15 Apr 2012 11:12 problem, complete

I've noticed that if you give a group a name containing an apostrophe it appears in the groups listing with the escape character '\' included in the name. Like this: http://cl.ly/FqAJ. Is there any way to remove that from the name displayed?

I'm using LV 2.1.1 on EE 2.4.0

   Hi Ian,
   
   Confirmed. I'll get it fixed for the next version. You can fix it by opening up mcp.low_variables.php and removing (or commenting out) line #1385, which says:
   
   

   $group_label = $this->EE->db->escape_str($group_label);

   Hey Low,
   
   That's great. I've made the change and it works fine.
   
   Thanks for the quick response.
