Hi supporters,

My webstite is crafst.com.

My website using Vietnamese so that I want to turn on "Unicode Aliases". But when creating blogs from CB, the alias are not created correctly.

While I create article using core joomla function (click on "CREATE ARTICLE"), it still works. Alias is still unicode.

Can you tell me how to solve that problem?

You can try with:

Thank you and looking forwards to hearing your reply.

Thank you Krileon,

Because I use Vietnamese for my site. When I create a blog, the auto alias cannot be read by human. For example:

The title of blog is "Đại học Việt Nam trong bảng xếp hạng thế giới"

The auto alias will be "139-i-h-c-vi-t-nam-trong-b-ng-x-p-h-ng-th-gi-i-2".

If the alias cannot be exactly like the title, please tell me if you know anyway to make the alias nicer, like: "dai-hoc-viet-nam-trong-bang-xep-hang-the-gioi"?

Thank you and regards,

Hai Dinh

Thank you Krileon.

Hi Krileon,

Can you help me a litle more on this issue.

In this code:

private static function getTitleAlias( $title )
{
$alias = str_replace( '-', ' ', $title );
$alias = trim( cbIsoUtf_strtolower( $alias ) );
$alias = preg_replace( '/(\s|[^A-Za-z0-9\-])+/', '-', $alias );
$alias = trim( $alias, '-' );
return $alias;
}

When I delete this line:

$alias = preg_replace( '/(\s|[^A-Za-z0-9\-])+/', '-', $alias );

The alias become better. It still unicode but, spaces are replaced with "%20".

Like this:

Title: Những động vật quý hiếm ở xứ sở các vị thần

Alias: 145-những%20động%20vật%20quý%20hiếm%20ở%20xứ%20sở%20các%20vị%20thần-3

Can you tell me how to replace "%20" with a dash "-" ? Or there is any other way to create the alias?

Thank you very much and looking forwards to hering from you.
