Hi,

Trying to use the less-than sign (< or

&lt;

) as part of a value of a custom field. It doesn't work while the greater-than sign (>) does. See screenshot. What to do about this?

Cheers,
Remco

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback.
I found the issue is related to Joomla's filtering for security.
Change the code:

$field->field_value[] = $safeHtmlFilter->clean($title,'string'). '::' .  $safeHtmlFilter->clean($value,'string') . '::' .  $safeHtmlFilter->clean($disabled,'string');

to:

$field->field_value[] = $safeHtmlFilter->clean($title,'raw'). '::' .  $safeHtmlFilter->clean($value,'raw') . '::' .  $safeHtmlFilter->clean($disabled,'string');

in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/field.php and it will fix the problem.
