Summary0007886: When saving Meta Keywords or Meta Descriptions & will be replaced with &
DescriptionIn the SEO Tab for products and categories saving Meta Keywords or Descritions an & will be replaced by & when pressing save.
This is a new behavior in the Oxid 7 series, i have tried it also in Oxid 6.4.3 and there and & will be saved as it is without replacing it.

This new bevhavior has a bad side effect, as the listing on Google / search engines are printing the Meta Descritions with the & instead of only &

I have attached .jpg where you can see it
Steps To ReproduceGo to Admin -> Administer Products -> Products or Categories
Select an article or categorie
Click on SEO Tab
Fill in an & in Meta Keywords and / or Meta description
Press the save button
& will be replaced with &
Additional InformationI have replaced all & in the table oxobject2seodata to & to fix this manually, but i think this should be fixed in the next versions
