When there is an ampersand in the Term name (e.g. "Energy & Climate Change"), it is displayed in the Select2 label as "Energy & amp; Climate Change" using the "amp;" reference. Please could it show as "Energy & Climate Change" instead?

Hi Phil,

If you use the field type select_advanced, it will escape the special characters. You can use the field type select or checkbox_list to show the character ampersand &.

Is there any way to navigate this on the select 2?

Some of my Select 2 boxes show "&" correctly, and just 2 show & amp;
