When typing in the title, the automatic slug generator doesn't filter or replace accentuated letters such as (ő, ú, á, ű). Is there a way to replace these letters to the unaccented one (like ő -> o, ű -> u, etc..)?
1 Answer
It actually used to work this way when Craft first launched, but we had feedback where it was desired behavior to allow accented characters and even multi-byte characters in slugs, because they are perfectly valid in the URI. e.g. http://domain.com/會意字
However, enough people have brought it up where they would like the old behavior that we're going to add a config setting for Craft 2.2 where you can choose which you prefer.
Update:
This was added as a limitAutoSlugToAscii config setting that defaults to true
in Craft 2.2.
