Does Processwire Allow Unicode Path Names?

[bytesource]

Hi, 

 

With reference to the great new multi-language page names feature, I would like to ask two questions about unicode path names:

 

1) Does Processwire support unicode path names, such as http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automóvil and http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Автомобиль ?

 

2) How common are unicode path names in practice? I assume Google likes them a lot, but I also realized that besides Wikipedia very few sites actually use them. 

 

Cheers, 

 

Stefan

Page names are checked through the module "Page name" (http://d.pr/i/frFb). If you click this gear you come to option page. And in this you can addvalid symbols and/or replacements: http://d.pr/i/frFb

But I think unicode charakters in paths aren't really good practice - but it's possible with PW!

Hi stefan,

This is not possible at the moment (sorry Nico )

Only those characters are supported for page names: [-_.a-zA-Z0-9/]

More information in this thread: http://processwire.com/talk/topic/3000-non-alphabetic-page-name/?p=29532

Cheers too, stefan too

@ Nico, Wanze

Thanks a lot for your answers! I guess I have to stay with ascii path names then.

Hi,

I want to apologize in advance for going off-topic. However, I just cannot find the option to start a new thread on the forum's main page. I attached a screenshot, maybe someone else can find find the respective button.

No screenshot attached

You need to first select a forum then start a thread...

I didn't realize this, because in the past I always choose a forum section first. This time I just wanted to start a new topic... 

Thanks a lot for your help!
