Email Obfuscation using antispambot() not working with tribe_get_organizer_email

[Jeff]

Hello,
I was using the code below in my functions.php to obfuscate emails, but just recently it doesn’t seem to work:
function tribe_947096_obfuscate_organizer_email( $output ) {
return antispambot( $output );
}
add_filter( ‘tribe_get_organizer_email’, ‘tribe_947096_obfuscate_organizer_email’ );

I found this code from this post:

Email obfuscation in single event view with Email Address Encoder?

Tried <?php echo antispambot(‘testemail.com’); ?>
and that works just fine as a stand alone so I don’t think it’s antispambot that is the problem.

The code here doesn’t seem to work properly when the filter is active:
“><?php echo esc_html( tribe_get_organizer_email() ) ?>

I’ll attach an image of the output, but here is the underlying html code result. This is expected, but this is also what’s displayed to the user:
&#97;&#108;iso&#110;&#116;a&#109;&#117;cc&#105;&#64;g&#109;&#97;il&#46;c&#111;m

Sorry, in the code before I forgot the semicolons. But adding them didn’t help and this code doesn’t work either:
“><?php echo esc_attr(tribe_get_organizer_email()); ?>

Wait a minute. Did you automatically add the email obfuscation now so that I don’t need the extra code in the functions.php file? It appears as if that’s what happened. I like the feature, just wasn’t aware of it. Am I correct?

Jeff,

Yes, TEC 4.3 now includes obfuscation of the organizer email addresses, so you can safely remove the custom function. It’s in the /src/template-tags/organizer.php file.

Hey Jeff,

Thanks for getting in touch with us, and Mathew thanks for jumping in 🙂

Indeed the antispambot is by default used by the function, as Mathew indicates above.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with,
Best,
Nico
