    Problem with links

    I have some special characters because my forum is not english. I notice that I have problem that I didn't have few days ago.
    I have replacements for š,đ,č,ć,ž and I have problem with ć and đ
    Example:
    Forum name is Domaće Serije
    I have replacement ć => c and I always have link like mysite.com/domace-serije
    But now it looks like mysite.com/domac-e-serije
    Same is happening for character đ => d , I hade link like mysite.com/grac-evinarstvo for forum Građevinarstvo and I had mysite.com/gradevinarstvo
    I looked in Character Replacement but everything is like it was.

    Like I get replacement c- for this characters. It is very strange.

    Chars after ascii 128 should use their & # xxx; code (spaces added so it doesn't parse) in format
    & # xxx => 'c'

    I have this after I upgrade from 3.3 to 3.5.1

    'Å ' => 'S'
    'Å¡' => 's'
    'Ä' => 'D'
    'Ä' => 'd'
    'Ž' => 'Z'
    'ž' => 'z'
    'Ä' => 'C'
    'Ä' => 'c'
    'Ä' => 'C'
    'Ä' => 'c'

    Yes, character replacement handeling was changed in 3.5 series. You need to use the ascii code on the left side as outlined above.

    I found this in vbseo:

    Characters that has a value below 256 should be used the following format ( actual character )
    Ü=>'u'
    ö=>'o'
    One of my characters is 208, so should I use than 'Đ'=>'D' for that character?

    And you said we should use space after 128, but in acp is written this:

    Note: Ascii characters have a space between # and value. You should not use that space.
    It doesn't tell anything abou 128.

    As you didn't link the source, i'm not sure where that is from. Keep in mind, that may have been true for older versions.

    up to 128, you can use the character directly.
    after 128, you must use the &# html code.

    It is written in Character Replacement under General Settings in VBSeo CP if you mean where did I found that.
    I you mean about link where I found number for characters, here it is:
    HTML Codes - Special Characters - ASCII Table

    And I am still confused about spaces. Should I put them or not? All my characters are above 200.

    I just try this and it is even worse. Now all my characters are wrong. I trzed with and withous spaces.

    I was using this:

    For Š - '& # 352;'=>'S'
    For š - '& # 353;'=>'s'
    For Đ - '& # 272;'=>'D'
    For đ - '& # 273;'=>'d'
    For Ž - '& # 381;'=>'Z'
    For ž - '& # 382;'=>'z'
    For Č - '& # 268;'=>'C'
    For č - '& # 269;'=>'c'
    For Ć - '& # 262;'=>'C'
    For ć - '& # 263;'=>'c'

    If I do that when I click to save settings it automatical add // before it like // &#263 => 'c'. I tried with spaces also but it did same thing. I am confused now because what you are telling is opposite to what I can read in CP and none of it working. There are quotes in example in CP.
    This is what is written:
    Enter character replacements (1 per line). You need to use Ascii Html value for the characters
    Examples:
    '&# 268;'=>'c'
    '&# 351;'=>'s'

    Characters that has a value below 256 should be used the following format ( actual character )
    Ü=>'u'
    ö=>'o'

    Note: Ascii characters have a space between # and value. You should not use that space.
    SO how should it look finally? Can you post it please, I gave you all numbers for my 10 characters.

    Thanks

    Hello Darko,

    I guess you should use:

    Code:
    '&#143'=>'a'
    For example.

    I already try that and it doesn't work. By the way, you are missing ; in your example.

    Using '&#143' => 'a' with or without ; symbol, works fine for me.
