Custom Settings Module Value String with Pipes
Yeah, we can allow you to escape pipe characters by doubling up on them.

Thank you for reporting this content, moderators have been notified of your submission.
I use Module Tokens whenever I can to help make Admin-level variables easy to manage through the XMP Configure screen instead of the code.
I have just run into an issue with the value that I can place inside the values of the variable, I think that the pipe | character is not allowed or has an issue?
a variable of
ExcludeTabNameList
was to have a value like this:
"Exclude|Names|Here"
but every time I save that value and save the page/configure screen, the Variable is removed or not saved.
If I keep a value of something simple like
"1" or "things here"
it saves correctly
Putting back in a couple of pipes | again and it doesn't save and removes that variable from the list of saved variables when I reopen the configure screen again.
Kelly mentioned that the Configure screen values are processed with Pipes so that creates a conflict if I'm trying to enter a value string with Pipes in it.
So could we get an escape character? or perhaps double up on Pipes to allow them through in the string?
