I am installing version 3.0 of Joomla and need Magic Quotes GPC to be disabled. I want to know how to do this.

Why would you need Magic Quotes GPC enabled? This security feature/fault has been removed in php5.4

The Joomla facility requires this.

If you are in a hosting, you can go to the php.ini file on the magic_quotes_gpc line and put magic_quotes_gpc = Off that it will be disabled on time, you can also do this by . htaccess, follow the code:

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off

I have a file called htaccess.txt, it gives anyway?

Rename to . htaccess and edit, as the server will recognize the file and run it with the new settings.

I did that and it still didn’t work out. There may be some other solution?

You have to see if there is a file called PHP.INI, because in this file you have magic_quotes_gpc or you can see if you have an option called PHP SELECTOR, At Homehost, the company that I work with has this option and makes it much easier to change the PHP version and do all this kind of configuration. If you are interested homehost.com.br .
