esc_like()
First half of escaping for LIKE special characters % and _ before preparing for MySQL.
Use this only before wpdb::prepare() or esc_sql(). Reversing the order is very bad for security.
Copied from core "wp-includes/wp-db.php". Avoids dependency on WP 4.4 wpdb.
No Hooks.
Return
String
. Text in the form of a LIKE phrase. The output is not SQL safe. Call $wpdb::prepare() or real_escape next.
Usage
esc_like( $text );
- $text(string) (required)
- The raw text to be escaped. The input typed by the user should have no extra or deleted slashes.
