I have Token Replacement turned on for a Text/HTML module, and in the content I am using some Tokens for content, and some of the other content requires a me to simply display the square brackets as regular text. Unfortunately the square brackets get removed.

How do I escape the token replacement so that I can output a square bracket.

Nevermind, I'm going to answer my own question again,..

Found out that square brackets can be simply wrote in their Hexadecimal Character Codes
in HTML Unicode like this:

[ : [

While I tried various HTML encodings, both [ or ] did not work.

Found out instead that square brackets can be wrote in their Hexadecimal Character Codes in HTML Unicode like this:

left square bracket [ [
right square bracket ] ]

The following website is a good resource list for Character Codes:

by default, DNN token replace will not remove text in square brackets, unless it is meeting one of the existing tokens. Saying this, HTML module might have some custom replace, which removes all items w/o a colon.
