Tuomo Syvänperä	Tuesday 23 September 2008 5:34:50 am How can I modify the way the "nice urls" are transformed. All scandinavian characters are mapped to ae oe etc. which makes the urls pretty ugly. I'd like to be able to map for example ä to a and ö to o so the urls would look a bit more readable. Also, I'm not sure if this is related to the above, but if I set the child nodes of some node to be ordered according to their name, they get ordered incorrectly. For example swedish o (å) gets ordered at the top of the list and not as last as it should.

Before you apply changes, though, backup your database (especially, if you have utf8_unicode_ci now).

Tuomo Syvänperä	Wednesday 24 September 2008 10:49:42 pm Thanks for the answer.. I've played around with the transformation settings in the ini - file but have been unable to get correct results.. And also the changing of the collation of the database didn't fix the sorting problem.. I still get å at the top of the list. Tried using the nodes sorting order and sorting them using the name. And also tried setting array('name', true()) as the sort_order in the fetch function, but neither of them works.

I won't give you a ready recipe, but look here:
/settings/transform.ini
/share/transformations/*.*
