Hi,

I was going to create a content regarding Jeff Star's (Perishablepress) 7G Firewall Rules for htaccess. However, something breaks the code.

The first issue appears after highlighting the code:

The second issue: I copied the original code without editing from txt file to Gutenberg block via Syntax highlighting code block.

But the code has been changed. To clarify check the difference please.
Original line:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/)(\*|\"|\'|\.|,|&|&?)/?$ [NC,OR]

it is changed by Syntax highlighting code block like that:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/)(\*|\"|\'|\.|,|&|&?)/?$ [NC,OR]

Also another original line:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (<|%0a|%0d|%27|%3c|%3e|%00|0x00) [NC,OR]

Changed by Syntax highlighting code block:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (<|%0a|%0d|%27|%3c|%3e|%00|0x00) [NC,OR]

But if I encode all the code, then no issue at all and The Syntax highlighting code block plugin shows the exact code without changing it. So should I encode codes before inserting them to Gutenberg? Do you recommend doing that?

NOTE: Highlighting issue is still there whether encode them or not.

Regards.
