WIP: Accordions reformat special characters into HTML entities in the source code

Browser: 132.0.6834.160
OS: Windows
URL: Local stage website

Using Accordions elements (both nested and classic) will reformat the text of the content made of special characters (for example š,č,ř,ž,ý in Czech language) into HTML entities.

How it looks on the website:

How it looks in the source code:
<p>Nejv&#283;t&scaron;&iacute; z&aacute;pory Ulefonu tkv&iacute; v jeho rozm&#283;rech a hmotnosti. Jedn&aacute; se o po&#345;&aacute;dn&eacute;ho tlou&scaron;t&iacute;ka a 600 gram&#367; u&#382; bude v kapse opravdu zn&aacute;t. V t&eacute;to cenov&eacute; kategorii bychom si tak&eacute; p&#345;edstavovali hez&#269;&iacute; (a &uacute;sporn&#283;j&scaron;&iacute;) AMOLED displej nam&iacute;sto IPS panelu.</p>

It looks like the issue is only in accordions. Everything else seems formatted as it should.

Since my project heavily relies on SEO, I’m not confident in pushing this onto the live website.

Can you look into it?

Thank you very much!

Hello @jedy357,

thank you for the report. I was able to reproduce this in the Accordion and Accordion Nestable and I’ve added it to our bug tracker.

Best regards,

Hello @Matej, any estimation of when we could see the fix released?

Thanks!

Hi @jedy357,

I can’t give you any timeline. Internally, I see the task still open.

But, if you would like to, I can try to implement a quick fix in your Bricks theme, and we can see if that would work.

Let me know.

Hi @Matej, thanks for the reply!

I have my Bricks theme set up only locally, so I can’t give you direct access to it. However, if the fix is about editing functions.php or something similar, can you maybe send me the code?

Thank you very much!

Hi @jedy357,

it’s a (demo!) change directly to the Bricks theme file, so I can’t just send it. If you ever has a live website, and would like to test this on a staging, please let me know, and we can try to implement it.
Also, note that this fix is not tested and definitely not final, but it might fix the issue, if it’s really needed. :slight_smile:

Best regards,
Matej

Ah, that looks like too much work for both of us. :sweat_smile:
I will just simply change the elements for now and wait for the official fix.

Thanks for the help, Matej!

Hehe, ok. Then let’s wait for a fix :wink: We will update this topic once it’s available.
