    Hello,
    Very useful plugin, thank you!
    But I encountered a problem with encoding.
    When installed your plugin changes encoding of ALL ! texts on my site (though visibly everything is OK). The site is in cyrillic.
    Here is the part of the code before and after installing PB SEO Friendly.

    Any ideas how to fix it?
    Thank you.

    hey,

    please check if your system supports “mb_convert_encoding”. the plugin use mb_convert_encoding to use a correct encoding but it also try to work without it, if that is not installed and that could cause some problems.

    Please check your php settings for “mb_convert_encoding” and tell me if it is available or not.

    kindly
    Pascal

    Thank you for your fast reply.
    Looks like the server doesn’t use this function.

    That is bad, because you need it for best encoding results.

    Though I left a msg with my hosting provider and they sent me full settings of the server. There is such string there:

    Registered Stream Filters
    zlib.*, bzip2.*, convert.iconv.*, string.rot13, string.toupper, string.tolower, string.strip_tags, convert.*, consumed, dechunk, http.*, mcrypt.*, mdecrypt.*

    convert.iconv – is what we need?

    You can test that easily:

    Create a php file with that content and open it in your browser

    <?php
    if( function_exists('mb_convert_encoding') ) {
        echo 'available.';
    } else {
        echo 'NOT available.';
    }

    What type of encoding do you use for your content? utf-8 or any other?

    utf-8

    Really strange, because the system ist optimized for utf8. Please try the next update in a few days, maybe this will help.
