Bug with Quoter Plugin for WordPress
Posted January 22nd, 2008 @ 05:07pm by Erik J. Barzeski
The Quoter plugin for WordPress has served me well for quite some time, but it has a bug.
If I simply type <blockquote><p>something here</p></blockquote>
in the comments, Quoter incorrectly adds an attribute line (i.e. "Erik J. Barzeski said...").
I've spent a little time looking at the code, but I haven't yet figured out how to solve this, and the plugin itself hasn't been updated in years. If anyone else knows how to fix this bug, please share here.
I'll post an example comment that displays the problem.

According to the Wikipedia:
That illustrates the problem (and is pretty breaking news at the moment).
I wasn't able to find much, as I said, in early digging. The plugin clearly seems to look for the "<blockquote" string and replace it. I think it should just replace "[quote" strings.
