Continuously banned when editing multi-lingual versions of article

(1/5) > >>

seadhna:
Hi, we are getting banned for simple edits when editing the Spanish version of articles. e.g. inclusion of a straight apostrophe (curly apostrophe is ok) is causing a security warning: forbidden!
Sometimes, just adding or changing the article title in the French or Spanish version is causing this Forbidden! alert.
Can you advise?

seadhna:
So, here is a specific example. The following piece of code causes a 'Forbidden' error and the text is not saved (in an alternate language version of the site):

<p>The work of the ILHR Programme is central to the attainment of PGA's vision.</p>

If I change the apostrophe to a "curly apostrophe", I am able to save the code without error:

<p>The work of the ILHR Programme is central to the attainment of PGA’s vision.</p>

webgift:
Try to use the HTML number for single quotes as quoted below!
<p>The work of the ILHR Programme is central to the attainment of PGA&#39;s vision.</p>

seadhna:
Hi, yes, this also works, but just a temp. solution right? Is this a known glitch with the CMS?

seadhna:
Also, while this workaround 'works', it only works for one 'save'. If you click 'apply' a 2nd time, the CMS has changed the HTML codes back to apostrophes and the save is forbidden and the admin is banned.
