Escape charactars are shown in site names

[josklever]

This is already a long existing issue, so it’s time to report it…

If a single quote is used in a website’s name, the name is shown in various places including an escaping \like: in the top left of a single site’s dashboard:

And in the Quick Site sidebar:

Hey @josklever

I couldn’t reproduce that, using `, ', or ".

What character are you using? Do you know the exact Unicode for it?

I assume your Site Language is Netherlands?

It’s the normal single quote: 39 (U+0027)

I did some tests:

1. Remove the \ directly in the database:
2. Replacing the ' in the single site settings: The ' was removed.
3. Adding the ' again:
4. Test 2 did work for 2 other sites.

So it looks like it was an old bug and luckily I had only 4 sites with this issue, so it’s solved for now.
