$unslashed_string = "Don't forget to slash me!";
$slashed_string = wp_slash( $unslashed_string );
echo $slashed_string;
// Example 2: Using wp_slash to escape an array of data
$data = array(
    'name' => "John Doe",
    'email' => "john.doe@example.com",
    'message' => "Hello, world! Don't forget to slash me too!"
);
$slashed_data = wp_slash( $data );
print_r( $slashed_data );
// Example 3: Avoiding double escaping by checking if data is already slashed
$unslashed_string = "I'm already escaped, don't double escape me!";
$slashed_string = wp_slash( $unslashed_string );

if ( ! is_array( $slashed_string ) ) {
    $slashed_string = wp_slash( $slashed_string );
}

echo $slashed_string;
