Steempress v2.0.1 Bug: Steempress Signature Is Not Rendered Correctly in Steemit / Steempeak

Project Information

Expected behavior

Posts made via Steempress should have a correctly formatted string of HTML text at their footer highlighting that Steempress was used.

Actual Behavior

The signature inserted by Steempress at the end of the posts is not being rendered correctly.

This post in my wordpress site was submitted to Steem here and as you can see, the end of the post is presented as html instead of pure text.

Technical Analysis

I suspect this may be because the text is not being converted to the correct character encoding prior to being submitted to the blockchain. E.g. The text appears in steem editors as:

Instead of as correctly rendered (normal) HTML.

I have attempted to find out if this is a known bug, but haven't had a reply yet in the Steempress discord space:
