    Hi,

    I have a not important but very annoying problem with the auto-generation alias when I have accentuated characters in the title.

    One example :
    - Title : Développement localisé
    - Auto-generated alias : développement-localisé
    - Old auto-generated alias (MODx < 1.0.2 if I remember) : dveloppement-localis
    - My wanted alias : developpement-localise

    I know some languages or navigators want to (or have to) support the accentuated characters the alias, but I can easylly imagine a new option the parameters of MODx where we can choose the wanted type of auto-generation.

    What do you thing abou this ?

      Hi Spheerys,

      Have a look at your TransAlias plugin configuration. Set it to « common » instead of « utf8lowercase » and it should be fine. The already generated alias will need to be updated by the way.

      Bon courage smiley

          I saw few days ago there’s a regular expression for aliases in system settings.
          Maybe an updated one can take care of this.

          Spanish websites also would benefit from it as we use accented characters too like: áéíóúñ
          This situation could be handled by default i think, but my skills doesn’t include regex.

          Is it possible?
