I have this function above to create url slugs from posts title, the problem is that the ç
characther is not being converted to c
. It is actually being override by the function.
Example post title: Coração de Pelúcia
The slug generated: coraao-de-pelucia
How can i fix this function to generate the slug like: coracao-de-pelucia
function generate_seo_link($input,$replace = '-',$remove_words = true,$words_array = array())
{
//make it lowercase, remove punctuation, remove multiple/leading/ending spaces
$return = trim(ereg_replace(' +',' ',preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9\s]/','',strtolower($input))));
//remove words, if not helpful to seo
//i like my defaults list in remove_words(), so I wont pass that array
if($remove_words) { $return = remove_words($return,$replace,$words_array); }
//convert the spaces to whatever the user wants
//usually a dash or underscore..
//...then return the value.
return str_replace(' ',$replace,$return);
}
