My Question or Issue

I am currently trying to use the spotify api for a personal project of mine. I created a spotify app at my dashboard and gave it a name. I just integrated the authorization in my application but whenever the user is redirected towards the authorization page the name of the application is displayed incorrectly. Apparently any use of the '&' symbol ads an additional unwanted 'amp;' at the end of its header. Oddly enough this doesn't happen in the secondary header bellow. The picture below displays the exact issue.

Any help is appreciated as changing the name for a minor inconvenience like this would be a real shame.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hey there @BramvGils,

 

Thanks for posting about this here in Community!

 

However, since you mention that you're using the app's API to set your project up, we'd recommend checking out Spotify for Developers for more help on this.

 

Let us know how you get on! We'll be right here if there's anything else we can help with.

 

Have a lovely day 🙂

Hello @Katerina,
Thank you for the quick response.

A neat suggestion, I'll re-ask my question there. Though I found considerable difficulty in finding a message board to post questions and reports like this. Does such a location exist at all? If so, could you post a link or describe how to find it.

Thanks in advance.
