[SOLVED] Simpleboard and signatures

I'm running CB 1.2.2 with Kunena 1.5.11. I'm having a problem with profile signatures.

Signatures correctly display in forum, but in profiles (browsing or editing), escape backslashes appear before special characters (like punctuation). I don't think the text is being correctly processed by the simpleboard plugin before being displayed.

Example, my signature is a piece of dialog from Dr. Horrible.

"Billy?"
"Yeah?"
"You're driving a spork in your leg"
"....so I am. Hilarious!"

If I type it and save it as my signature, no problem.

Going back to edit my profile later, the signature appears as

EDIT: The forum software is editing out my backslashes (unlike the signature box ). See my next post for a picture of the bugged signature.

If I then save this without changes, the backslashes start to stack, since each backslash is a special character that needs escaped. The resulting signature has twice as many backslashes as before (and they grow exponentially with each profile save).

Recommendations?

I just realized that, unlike the forum signature function, CB seems to be filtering out the backslashes in my previous post.

I've attached a picture of the malfunctioning signature box. It should illustrate my point.

Was able to confirm and resolve for next release. Is a minor issue of missing stripslashes. Please perform the following edits for a "quick fix".

IN: components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbsimpleboardtab/cb.simpleboardtab.php
ON: Line 75
FROM:
[code:1]
$return = $this->_fieldEditToHtml( $field, $user, $reason, 'input', 'textarea', $value, 'class="inputbox cbforumsignature" cols="60" rows="4"' );
[/code:1]
TO:
[code:1]
$return = $this->_fieldEditToHtml( $field, $user, $reason, 'input', 'textarea', stripslashes( $value ), 'class="inputbox cbforumsignature" cols="60" rows="4"' );

TO:

$new = stripslashes( cbGetParam( $postdata, 'forumsignature', null ) );
[/code:1]

This is a couple of weeks old, but I wanted to say that it fixed the problem on my end. Thanks!
