WordPress post slugs (5 posts)

    I was happy to find out that when you activate permalinks in recent versions of WordPress it will automatically generate the post slugs to make the URL's look nice.

    I have one problem though. In Denmark we use this special character 'å' which should be converted to 'aa' not just a single 'a'.

    The thing is that it converts it to both 'aa' and 'a', the algorithm is inconsistent so to speak.

    Example 1 (å is translated to two aa like it should be)
    Example 2 (å is translated to just one a, should not be like that)

    Can I somehow change how the automatic slugs are generated?

    I have the exact same problem. The danish characters ø, å and æ should be converted to respectively oe, aa and ae in the slugs.

    Any solutions out there? :)

    Well first this is not a WP-Advanced issue. If an automated component of WordPress does something inconsistently or wrong, then it's a bug and needs to be reported.

    Reports on the issue already seem to exist:
