Slugs in servers with no mb_* functions - Carlos - 2012-12-23
It seems GS has trouble creating slugs if your server does not have the multibyte extension (mb_* functions) and you use non US-ASCII latin characters (á, è, ...) in your page titles.
Suggested patch:
Edit /admin/inc/basic.php, find this (around line 62):
PHP Code:
function to7bit($text,$from_enc="UTF-8") {
if (function_exists('mb_convert_encoding')) {
$text = mb_convert_encoding($text,'HTML-ENTITIES',$from_enc);
}
Just after that, in line 66, insert this:
PHP Code:
else
$text = htmlspecialchars_decode(utf8_decode(htmlentities($text, ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8', false)));
...just before this:
PHP Code:
$text = preg_replace(
Now you should be able to use a title like Déjàvu, and the page slug will be deja-vu (and saved as deja-vu.xml, not as d%C3%A9j%C3%A0-vu.xml).

Thoughts?

nice fallback
Why would someone not have multibyte at this point though ?

No idea why, maybe for (excessive) security reasons?

I can tell it works great!

Already done in svn, so it will be fixed for next GS 3.2.0 release.

3.3.0
3.2 is already in beta testing, only hotfixes at this point.
