    Are SEF supported in Greek?

    Hi, I have a vbulletin forum in Greek language with utf-8 support. All threads and categories are in Greek. Does vbseo support greek titles in sef links?

    Also, I am using vbadvanced. Are there any incompatibilities between vbadvanced and vbseo?

    Hello,

    it is possible to configure vBSEO to keep UTF8 characters in URLs urlencoded (with disabling "Replace Non-English Characters in URLs" option in vbseocp).

    It works both with Apache 1.3.x and 2.x, mod_rewrite module support is required.

    Something else that I asked in the first post: In the same vbulletin forum I have installed a cms web application called vbadvanced (www.vbadvanced.com). Is vbseo compatible with vbadvanced?

    I've installed vbseo and the links I get is like this:
    Code:
    http://www.world.gr/f11/i-i-i-i-i-iui-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-iui-i-i-i-i-i-214-new/
    where i-i-i-i-i-iui-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-iui-i-i-i-i-i is the greek name of the thread.
    Any ideas?

    Did you disable "Replace Non-English Characters in URLs" option in vbseocp?

    You should see greek character in status bar when moving mouse over the link. As it is mentioned above, the characters in the link are "urlencoded" (since they cannot be included directly in the link according to standard). It works similar to URLs in Wikipedia, as an example:
    & - Βικιπαίδεια
    Code:
    http://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%A4%CF%81%CE%AD%CF%87%CE%BF%CE%BD%CF%84%CE%B1_%CE%B3%CE%B5%CE%B3%CE%BF%CE%BD%CF%8C%CF%84%CE%B1
