If I use ' in a Paragraph block displays correctly, using the same character in Fields and Text it does not.
I solved it by using
’
in the HTML. If you switch to Visual and back again to the HTML tab you can see it looks like a different character (see How it looks in HTML - correct after using HTML code vs How it looks in HTML - incorrect).
I hope the images illustrate the small issue.
Hello,
I have tried the same codes a you mentioned above in my localhost with a fresh WP installation + the latest version of Toolset plugins, both Paragraph block and " Fields and Text" block output the single quote character as same HTML encode:
‘
See my screenshot sq.JPG
So the problem is abnormal, please check the compatibility issue in your website:
In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate all other plugins, and switch to wordpress default theme 2020, deactivate all custom PHP/JS code snippets, and test again
Hi, entering an HTML code will solve the problem, that's what I already did to solve the issue. Ignore the HTML code. Can your just TYPE the single quote/possessive apostrophe using ONLY the keyboard.
Works in a Paragraph block, not in the Fields and Text. It will display on the front end as in my image 'Wrong quotation mark after typing in'
There isn't a second single quote character in the same Fields and Text block, which is the last paragraph in the attachment. This is the block that has the problem.
There is in a Paragraph block before - see at the top of the attachment - 'school's Safeguarding Children Policy' which uses a single quote. Could this affect the Fields and Text block of the last paragraph?
I have to admit they look fine on the screen. They are straighter than how they display on my site. So compare the top section of 'Single Quote' (your demo site) and 'Front End looking correct'.
When I looked at the code using Firefox Inspector, I noticed that in the HTML they are displayed differently depending on if it's a Paragraph Block or Fields and Text blocks.
On my site this is exactly how it ended up displaying (see 'Wrong quotation mark after typing in'). Albeit not on your demo site - even though the HTML in the inspector on your demo site there is a difference between the two - see the red boxes in the Single Quote image. First is a Paragraph block, second two are Fields and Text blocks.
So how it actually displays on my site, is as it is displayed exactly in the HTML of your Demo site. (Unless for the Fields and Text block I've manually added the HTML code instead of just typing in a quote).
Codes solve my problem.
I don't want you to use codes. Ignore codes. Just use the keyboard.
Your website, if you inspect the HTML you will see that the same quote mark, ALL typed in with the keyboard, displays differently if in a Paragraph block vs a Fields and Text block. Look closely at the Single Quote image attached. These were just all typed in. Why? Shouldn't they all be the same? This is what I see on my own website.
JFYI I looked at your link. On your site they display differently too. Included is a picture of your second link. So you have the same problem.
Can you just look at the Text and Field block, add a field and an apostrophe immediately after the field. In the browser inspector they do look different.
I think there isn't something quite right, but I appreciate this is a tiny thing that can be corrected 'manually' so I don't mind if you want to close the issue.
