Better URLs for Scandinavian letters in N2CMS
In N2CMS the default behavior when creating a page containing ‘Å’ or ‘Ö’ in the URL is to replace it with ‘Ae’ and ‘Oe’. I find this makes less readable URLs, and I believe people are more used to read URLs where you replace it with a single letter, e.g. ‘Å’ to ‘A’.
Example for page title “Räksmörgås”:
Default: raeksmoergas/
Wanted: raksmorgas/
To change this default behavior in N2CMS you need to add this configuration to Web.config:
<n2> <edit> <nameEditor> <replacements> <remove name="smallAE"/> <remove name="capitalAE"/> <remove name="smallOE"/> <remove name="capitalOE"/> <remove name="theRest"/> <add name="smallAE-new" pattern="[æä]" value="a" /> <add name="capitalAE-new" pattern="[ÆÄ]" value="A" /> <add name="smallOE-new" pattern="[ö]" value="o" /> <add name="capitalOE-new" pattern="[Ö]" value="O" /> <add name="theRest-new" pattern="[^. a-zA-Z0-9_-]" value="" /> </replacements> </nameEditor> </edit> </n2>
