Unable to edit or add WireGuard peers

Description
After upgrading from test build 2.5.0.a.20210122.2350 to 2.5.0.a.20210125.0856:
-- I am unable to edit all existing peers under the sole existing tunnel I created under the prior build. After clicking the edit button, nothing happens (window containing peer variables is not shown)
-- "Edit Peers" button does not have any effect
-- "Save" does not have any effect
Ability to edit wireguard peers was regained by editing /cf/conf/config.xml and removing values from the following variables
-- <descr></descr>
-- <persistentkeepalive></persistentkeepalive>
It seems as though certain strings/characters I entered for those variables caused the issue.

What did you have in those fields?
The keepalive value is numeric so it's unlikely to be that. Description is CDATA encoded so also unlikely to be a source of problems, but perhaps depending on the contents it may have triggered something. Without knowing what that was, it's difficult to say.

I found a couple issues on the page that could be a problem if the description contained a single quote (') which could explain the behavior you observed. I pushed some fixes, which should make it into snapshots later today/overnight.
I had an string that included a single quote encased by the <descr></descr> variable so it lines up perfectly with your observation. Thank you.
Tested on Jan 29 build. Looks good.
