  1. Identify the embed field: First, determine the specific embed field where the issue is occurring. This could be a custom code embed, an HTML embed, or a text embed field.

  2. Access the embed code: Open the content editor for the page where the embed field is located. Navigate to the embed field and access the embed code within it.

  3. Replace the apostrophe: Look for any instances of an apostrophe in the embed code and replace them with the appropriate HTML entity code. The entity code for an apostrophe is '. This code represents the single quote character in HTML.
