Maybe for now try 419_contains=[419]? If that doesn’t work, best wait out the big fix.

Thanks for the idea, unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. I was wondering if there was maybe a hook (https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase-category/display-data-hooks/) that could help, but there are so many I'm not sure where to begin.

Hello, How did you manage to fix that? Or you were'nt able to?
@Bobby Clapp , Do you know if there is going to be any updates to get this fixed? My client is using a pro version on a production environment and facing issues due to miscalculations on field values with '&'
Any help would be appreciated.

Someone needs to bug it with the official Formidable support team.

I got a response from the support team. They provided a hook...

Our lead developer shared a hook that can be used to fix this issue. (please add the code below to your site). This snippet you can change the where value used for a stat shortcode. The shortcode value gets encoded so & is really & so it fails the check. This snippet changes all of those & back to & for the query:

add_filter(
'frm_stats_where',
function( $where ) {
$where['where_val'] = str_replace( '&', '&', $where['where_val'] );
return $where;
}
);

You can put the code in the WPCode plugin, your own plugin, or your theme's functions.php file. I recommend you put it in the WPCode plugin, which has some nice features and will allow you to retain the functionality even if you change themes.
