I am trying to:

Export a cred form with the following inline jQuery

jQuery( "input[name=participants\\[\\]]" ).each(function() { ...

and import this cred form into another site.

On the target site, this results in this inline code:

jQuery( "input[name=participants\[\]]" ).each(function() { ...

causing the brackets to not be escaped properly anymore and this breaks the jQuery.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I think you are using the wrong syntax as rather adding the slash to escape the brackets, you should try to use the following method.

As you can see - I've removed the slashes and wrapped the field name in single quotes: 'participants[]'
For example:

jQuery( "input[name='participants[]']" ).each(function() {

And then save your form, export it and later try to import it. It should work. 🙂
