The text I'm inputting into the WYSIWYG field that contains brackets [], does not show up on the front-end (see screenshot). It only shows up after I remove any brackets in the text. It seems that it sees them as a shortcode trying to be inserted? This seems to be a bug. I've tried both visual and text editor but no luck. As you can see, the Representative Publications section is therefore not showing up on the front-end: hidden link
Hello,
I have tried it in a fresh WP installation + the latest version of Toolset plugins, it works fine, it does display the brackets [] correctly, see my screenshot brackets.JPG
So the problem you mentioned above is abnormal, please check these:
1) Make sure you are using the latest version of Toolset plugins, you can download them here:
https://toolset.com/account/downloads/
2) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate all other plugins, and switch to WordPress default theme 2021, deactivate all custom PHP/JS code snippets, and test again
3) If the problem still persists, please provide database dump file(ZIP file) of your website, you can put the package files in your own google drive disk, share the link only, also point out the problem page URLs, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

I believe I'm using the legacy version? because I needed to create custom queries for the Views which wasn't possible with the Views block. Can you please confirm what needs to be updated that could potentially solve this issue? Screenshot attached.
I can see the problem in your website, and I can install the duplicator package file in my localhost, strangely, it works fine in my localhost, see my screenshot: pmid.JPG
So it should be a server issue, please try to get the PHP debug logs from your website:

Hi, I turned on WP debug and saw the attached message quickly flash on the screen. I did go ahead and update all the plugins and no longer see the message and don't see that line of code in the functions.php file either but the problem still persists. Could it be a Cache for custom fields issue?
