Problem with displaying links transliterated from Ukrainian language (Letter "і")

aZzZzZoT

Hello. I have a problem with displaying links transliterated from Ukrainian language.

htt://localhost/discussion/2/graficheskie-artefakty-neizvestnogo-proishozhdeniya - Topic Title in Russian (Графические артефакты неизвестного происхождения!) - All is well.

htt://localhost/discussion/2/graf%F1%96chn%F1%96-artefakti-nev%F1%96domogo-pohodzhennya" - Topic Title in Ukrainian (Графічні артефакти невідомого походження!) - There is a problem with the letter "i", and it changes to a symbol "%".

How can i fix this? Thank you.

I am not sure if that can even be removed to be honest.

I added new characters UA/RU (ї, і, є, Ї, І, Є, И) into \library\core\class.format.php and yet everything is ok.

Bear in mind that file will be over-written when you upgrade Vanilla, and you will need to make the changes again.

Present encoding is a way of preserving encoding. Browsers are under no obligation to render characters outside of url encoding, servers are under no obligation to accept them.

Browser usually convert percent encoding visually in the address bar, but sometimes this is missed.

That said rules can be broken for good reason.

Ok I understand you are talking about transliteration or romanticisation. .
