I have reviewed the code and discussed this issue with our lead developer, and this appears to be a very rare instance and we are going to hold off on changing any code at this time.</p> <p>When I tested out this issue, I found that when I used the actual ampersand in the title, the validation would work. The problem seems to only come up if the user actually types in the html representation for characters.</p> <p>We will revisit this issue if the frequency of users having the problem increases; you were actually the first one. </p> <p>Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/getting-an-error-please-enter-a-valid-value#post-67810 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 21:02:21 +0000 Chris Hajer 67810@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The email subscribe to topic function is a little flaky with this version of bbPress.

The problem looks to be that when we save the data, the ampersand is the html representation and when doing the validation it is the actual character, so they aren't matching.</p> <p>We will work on fixing that, but until we get that fix in place, change your label to use the word "and" and you should be good to go. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/getting-an-error-please-enter-a-valid-value#post-67476 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 22:55:28 +0000 Chris Hajer 67476@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have pinged the developers on this one.
