|
|
Hello,
I would like to share the modification of format_url() function in phpbb_seo_class.php in order to make phpbbseo mod to work with any language. Just I am not sure if the convertion of words will make sence when using non ascii languages 
So,
1. Make sure iconv is installed on your server.
2. Download the package "utf8_to_ascii" from phputf8 project:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=142846
3. Extract that package and upload "utf8_to_ascii.php" file and /db/ folder to the /phpbb_seo/ folder on your forum server.
4. In phpbb_seo_class.php file:
4.1 write the encoding of your forum language in this line:
| Code: | | $this->encoding = "iso-8859-1"; |
4.2. Replace format_url() function by this:
| Code: |
function format_url( $url, $type = 'topic' ) {
require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/utf8_to_ascii.php';
if(strtolower($this->encoding) != "utf-8") $url = iconv($this->encoding,"utf-8",$url);
$url = utf8_to_ascii($url,"");
$url = preg_replace("/[^a-z0-9]+/i","-",$url);
$url = ( $url == "" ) ? $type : strtolower(trim($url, '-'));
return $url;
}
|
Now test how your forum creates the SEO links.
I wonder if it makes sence in all languages, but at least this method you can easily use for e.g., Baltic Language encodings (like iso-8859-13) which are not supported by phpbbSEO mods / htmlentities(). |

Thanks for this contribution.
I think though that your method won't properly deal with accents.
What you could do is use iconv() to go for utf-8, and then let the original code do it's job :
| Code: | function format_url( $url, $type = 'topic' ) {
$url = preg_replace("`\[.*\]`U","",$url);
$url = iconv($this->encoding,"utf-8",$url);
$url= htmlentities($url, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');
$url= preg_replace( "`&([a-z]+)(acute|uml|circ|grave|ring|cedil|slash|tilde|caron|lig);`i","\\1", $url );
$url = preg_replace('`&(amp;)?#?[a-z0-9]+;`i','-',$url);
$url = preg_replace("`[^a-z0-9]`i", "-", $url);
$url = preg_replace("`[-]+`", "-", $url);
$url = trim($url, '-');
$url = ( $url == "" ) ? $type : strtolower($url);
return $url;
} |
