 * Hey!
 * I have problems by converting words like “grün” with special characters into 
   hashtags.
 * Greetings

 * PS: Would like to filter the title too? Interested in adding that?

 * Hi Ralf,
 * even though I see we both speak German I answer in English to make this readable
   for everyone…
 * Shame on me I did not test that! After a quick check I think to know where the
   problem is. I’ll analyze and fix that shortly.
 * I don’t know if hashtags in titles make sense. But maybe I’ll add that feature
   in a future version.

 * Hey!
 * For my use-case including the title would make sense. Maybe add a filter so I
   can modify it to my needs.
 * Grüße 😉

 * Version 1.2 should fix that. Please try it!
 * I made strict inquiries relating to how hashtags work on Twitter, Facebook and
   Google+. Which characters are allowed in it, which characters are allowed directly
   before a hashtag and which characters end a hashtag. And I tried to clone that.
   Hope it was successful…

 * Hey!
 * Works great with ü, ä und ß. Didn’t tested the Rest.
 * Maybe add this Filter?
 *     ```
       function swcc_htg_generate_tags( $postid ) {
         wp_set_post_tags( $postid, swcc_htg_get_hashtags_from_content( get_post_field('post_content', $postid) ), apply_filters( 'swcc_htg_toggel_append_tags', false ) );
       }
       ```
