the "makeFriendly" modul didn't work with pligg 9.6!?
if i have a news title with special characters i get a blank site if want to visit the news on the source page.

another question
why did it work with pligg 9.1 and why didn't it work with 9.6?

I think you did something wrong. I am using the makeFriendly module with Pligg 9.6 and it works great.

Dubai, thanks for answering.

i fixed the problem like expalined in posting #4 in the following thread.
Help, utf-8 + Friendly Url + Outgoing title = Error

now the outgoing links are working fine without using the make friendly mod

Little OT: Does anyone know how to change RSS Feed encoding with IE 7?

I had to change RSS encoding to ISO-8859-1 due to the special character problem and it works perfectly with FF. IE shows an error message.

I just realized that Pligg ignores the change at rss.php and delivers the feeds as UTF-8. Seems that FF can handle UTF and ISO-8859-1 encoded special characters but IE 7 don´t.

How can I force Pligg to change rss encoding?

I noticed this problem with special characters + tags and can't fix it. I tried the
modification given in this thread on page two but it didn't make a difference.
Tags with special characters don't come too often but I would like to fix this problem.

Should the mentioned tags.php modification work or is it only good guess?
I changed my site to ISO-8995-1 but it made a mess so I switched back to UTF-8.

That´s normal. Every special character has been encoded with UTF-8 so far. These encodings look strange if interpreted as ISO-8859-1. You have to edit every story manually and type again the special characters (now ISO-8859-1 encoded). The same is true for localized variables. I recommend you to change it with lang.conf and a special editor like PSPad.

Thanks Tbones. So do I need to change my encoding to make tags with special characters to work?
I think everything else is working fine with UTF-8.
