BANS Content Not Saving FIXED

*** UPDATE ***

WE HAVE FOUND A NEW AND EASIER WAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM

REMEMBER YOU SAW IT HERE FIRST!

*** END UPDATE ***

A lot of people have had trouble lately with content not being saved in their BANS site. This is not necessarily a BANS issue, it has come about because Hostgator changed their setting for php_magic_quotes variable to help with their Site Builder script. What this variable does when turned On is automatically escapes the quote (‘) symbol (changes it to \’ ). Hostgator figured this setting would mess up some scripts that their customers had installed so they made it a very simple fix to turn it back On. Rich and I have gotten lots of emails and pm’s concerning this problem so I decided to make a post about it.

Step 1. Login to your cPanel

Step 2. Scroll down to the php.ini EZConfig icon and click it.

Step 3. Click the “Enable EZConfig” button.

Step 4. Scroll down to around halfway to the php_magic_quotes entry.

Step 5. Change it to On (make sure the O is capitalized and the n is lowercase)

Step 6. Scroll to the bottom and click the “Save Changes” button.

Step 7. Test it out to make sure it worked, if it did Great! but if not then go to step 8.

Step 8. Go back to the EZConfig panel and change the other 2 magic_quote entries to On as well.

Step 9. Click “Save Changes” button.

Step 10. It should work now.

I hope this post has fixed the issue of content not saving in your BANS site. If not feel free to leave a comment, PM, email, or contact me or Rich any way you want and we will be glad to help.
