    Hi,

    Thanks for reviving BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types.

    NB the Custom Taxonomy Multiselector is not rendering the options properly on the frontend – it is showing HTML in with the options. I believe this was also the case with the original plugin.

    Here are two screenshots:
    – Backend: https://snag.gy/SyD6I9.jpg
    – Frontend (BuddyPress profile): https://snag.gy/uv4HGF.jpg

    I am using WP 4.9.6, BuddyPress 3.1.0 and BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types 1.0.2.

    rt.

    Hi Richard,
    Thank you for using the plugin.

    It is a bug with your theme. Here is how it looks on normal themes

    Your theme is using esc_html() on the field value which it should not. The values are already sanitized(BuddyPress does it and we do it too).

    Please look for the code and you can fix it.

    Regards
    Brajesh
