I' m using a third party module (Ventrian News Articles) and i love this module. But one thing which does not make me happy is: it removes one character from url if i  use this character in my article title.

In earlier releases, we worked on a solution for Turkish community to replace characters in url. And it worked great. But lately other people from various countries also wanted to have similar feature, Scott decided to implement a global way to do replacements. So far so good. It almost replaces all characters. But except one.

ı is not being replaced with i.

Have you seen something like this before?

I'm going to attach both files, in case someone would like to help me to implement it to new version.

Note: I have zero knowledge on Visual Basic. I will stick to your ideas. We can also use Teamviewer to connect and view the problem. If anoyne interested i can show the exact problem with my virtual pc.

Here are the related files:

I really appreciate your help.

Thanks.

I don't mind rar files, so I took at look at the problem.

Looks like the issue is in the RemoveDiacritics function in the 07.31 file. It seems like it does a great job at replacing everything except the dotless i character. The other file, the 05.74, has a function that targets the turkish character codes. If you want a quick fix, just copy the ReplaceTrChars function from the 05.74 file, and paste it into the 07.31 file... I'm on the way out to breakfast, but if this is still unanswered when I return I'll provide the exact bits you'll need to fix this...

<%= RemoveDiacritics("hålçoıi")%>

<script language="vb" runat="server">
     Public Shared Function RemoveDiacritics(ByVal s As String) As String

            s = s.Normalize(System.Text.Normalizationform.formD)

            Dim sb As System.Text.StringBuilder = New System.Text.StringBuilder()

            Dim i As Integer

            For i = 0 To s.Length - 1
        If CharUnicodeInfo.GetUnicodeCategory(s(i)) <> UnicodeCategory.NonSpacingMark Then

                    sb.Append(s(i))

        End If

            Next

            Return sb.ToString().Normalize(System.Text.Normalizationform.formC)
        End Function
</script>
