TOPIC: My site does not accept non-ascii characters

My site does not accept non-ascii characters 12 years, 10 months ago #22118

Hello

My ordering number for the paid version of JOOMSEF is Order Number: 15422

My joomla websites strips the content articles which contain any special characters like "ă, â, î, ş, ţ".
I have tried a lot of solutions until now but none proved to be available.

I purchased JoomSEF and now I have the 3.8.1 version installed on my site www.romanul.eu

As you can see it is a page in romanian language which has special characters like "ă, â, î, ş, ţ" and also I have some sections in spanish that are with other special characters like "á, ó... ñ".

My PROBLEM is that after installing JOOMSEF and activating it I can't publish content with these characters. Joomla saves the article with the text until it gets to the special characters. Strips actually the text.

I have already activated these options "Allow UTF-8 characters in URL: YES" and "Non-ascii char replacements:" that lok like this: ???|A, ???|A, ???|A, ???|A, ???|A, ???|A, ???|A, ???|C, ???|C,....
Also I looked at the database in PHPmyAdmin to have the collation utf8_general_ci which includes romanian and spanish.

Right now I came out of solutions. Please help me. I need to save my articles with all the special characters from romanian and spanish.

Thank you in advance.

Hello,
you should replace the ??? with the actual characters. Seems the configuration file got malformed.
The correct format is:
ă|a, â|a, î|i, ...

Then it should work fine.
