URL Method 2 Bug w/ Turkish Characters

[tasmaniac]

Hello,

I'm doing SEO things to my Turkish Pligg site and came across to URL Method 2. I applied all the instructions to my .htaccess file and checked for the mod_rewrite option is enabled.

But I have a serious problem with stories that have Turkish characters like şŞçÇüÜğĞıİöÖ on title because when clicked on one of them the page gives 404 not found error.

I think I have to change these Turkish chars somewhere in the code with the English compatible version. Ex: Ulaşım --> Ulasim

I found a code in the phpbb support forum and thought that I need something like these for Pligg. You can see the code below.

PHP Code:

$url = str_replace (array('ğ','Ğ'), 'g', $url);
$url = str_replace ("İ", 'i', $url);
$url = str_replace (array('ş','Ş'), 's', $url);
$url = str_replace (array('ğ','Ğ'), 'g', $url);
$url = str_replace ("İ", 'i', $url);
$url = str_replace (array('ş','Ş'), 's', $url);
$url = str_replace ("ı", 'i', $url); 


With begining level programming and codding knowledge I couldn't solve this problem. If someone suggest a solution I'll be appreciate.

Also It will be very helpful if pligg developers will implement a permanent solution for this case.
