    Can The URL Be Written In Foriegn Languages

    Hello there,

    Actually I've been thinking seriously of buying this vbseo hack to enhance my board visibility, however one of the most exciting features I'm interesting is making the title of a thread as the url itself (i.e., in english it works like this: domain.com/vbdirectory/subforum/thread-title-goes-here.html
    can this happen in different languages such as Arabic so it becomes for instance:
    domain.com/vbdirectory/subforum/هنا-يكون-عنوان-الموضوع.html
    )

    because I've seen some arabic threads but the url looks with strange characters.

    how can this feature work on foreign languages (i.e., non english)

    regards

    Hello again

    I've just bought it, I was trying to do that feature we talked about, so I changed the option that says :
    Replace Non-English Characters in URLs?

    into

    Keep non English characters in URLs

    and now when I look @ the url there are strange characters instead of Arabic ones tailed with .html

    but if I took the mouse over the link it shows the Arabic characters in the status bar down of the browser tailed by .html

    could you tell me, please ... how to make those Arabic characters shown in the URL as they do in the status bar
