menu item contents converted to entities [#2070469]

I am using the menu block module to display menu blocks taken from the main menu both in the sidebar and footer. The sidebar block is displaying fine, but in the footer the display is getting garbled.

I am using superfish for the main menu. I have html wrappers around the hyperlinks content configured in superfish that are , which I have in to control the behavior of the menu via css.

In the sidebar, the menu block I have starts at the second level and behaves fine. When I look at the source for the sidebar block the html wrappers that superfish inserts are not present.

In the footer the menu block I have is configured to start with a fixed parent item and go one level down. What happens is that the menu displays but superfish html wrappers are present, but the brackets in the spans are somehow converted to their html entities, so they show on the page.

I can't seem to isolate what is causing the difference in behavior, or even be certain that it is a menu block problem, but would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks,

Barry

Ok I have researched this further and see that it is an issue with Superfish, as described here: https://drupal.org/node/2040067. I have gone back to the older version of Superfish and things are working, but it would be nice to know if there is another solution.

One additional comment; I am also using the Special Menu Items module, and found one reference online that suggested that it might be the cause of the problem as it interacts with the others. In any event, I am sticking with the solution of using Superfish 7.x-1.8, since at the moment everything looks functional and stable with that configuration.
