CMSMS and UTF-8 problems. International chars in menu titles?

Hi,

I've got a problem with CMSMS. I've found the platform way the best from others to make very flexible and simple sites with editable frontend for my customers (for big sites I use Drupal, however it is too big for simple use). CMSMS is UTF-8 friendly, however when I add page with menu title containing international characters (in Polish - ąśćęałó), it does not work correctly. CMSMS transports the title within GET parametr of URL and that's the problem. UTF-8 chars are not URL friendly (perhaps?), and when I try to access such page I'm getting 404's. How to avoid it ? I would be glad if it was possible for me to use CMSMS with polish chars in titles also.


Best wishes,
M.

Your best bet it to set the auto_alias_content variable to false in config.php.  Then, you can set it when you create a new page and make sure that it's only valid characters.  To fix your existing pages, you should be able to edit the alias.
