Wordpress: How to unescape the results when using $wpdb->get_results?

$wpdb->insert() and $wpdb->prepare() will escape data to prevent SQL injection attacks. The $wpdb->get_results() function is designed to work generically with SQL SELECT statements, so I believe the fact that the slashes are left in place is intentional. This allows the consumer of the data to process it as necessary.

Since the $wpdb->get_results() funciton returns an array of stdClass objects, in order to remove the slashes in all columns in every row, you must iterate through the rows, and through the properties of each row object running the PHP stripslashes() function on it.

foreach( $quotes as &$quote ) {    foreach( $quote as &$field ) {        if ( is_string( $field ) )            $field = stripslashes( $field );    }}

//replace $_POST with $POST    $POST      = array_map( 'stripslashes_deep', $_POST);    $wpdb->insert(             'wp_mytable',             array(                 'field_name'        => $POST['field_name'],                 'type'              => $POST['type'],                'values'            => serialize($POST['values']),                'unanswered_link'   => $POST['unanswered_link'],             ),             array(                 '%s','%s','%s','%s'            )         );
