magic_quotes_gpc is a PHP flag that you can turn on/off easily. By default, it's always turned on in our servers. We do NOT recommend to turn it off due to security reason (SQL Injections). Click here to learn about the security concerns.

To turn it off, do the following steps:

1) In your CPanel's File Manager (or any FTP client), locate the file /public_html/.htaccess
2) Edit the file .htaccess thru your CPanel's File Manager (or any FTP client) and add the following line at the end of your .htaccess file:

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off

3) Save .htaccess file. You are done!
