<p>The solution is usually interested in installations that set the language to de_DE, German. This Plugin, also usable as a drop-in, replaces non-ASCII strings, especially German umlauts, with an alternate in permalinks and uploaded files. Also, add the German language key to the feed.</p>
<p><em>The following hints are only available in the German language.</em></p>
<h4>Beschreibung</h4>
<p>Diese Sprach-<em>DropIn</em> ersetzt diverse Zeichen durch entprechende Strings in den Permalinks und den Namen hochgeladener Dateien. Im weiteren wird der Sprachschlüssel der Feeds gesetzt.</p>
<h4>Lösungen</h4>
<ul>
<li>Ersatz von Umlauten und Sonderzeichen um saubere Permalinks zu erzeugen
<ul>
<li>Beispiel: <em>Das häßliche Entlein kostet 1 €</em> wird im Permalink zu <em>das haessliches-entlein-kostet-1-eur</em></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Dateinamen ersetzen: Sonderzeichen, Leerzeichen, Umlaute
<ul>
<li>Beispiel: <em>Häßliches Entlein.png</em> wird zu <em>haessliches-entlein.png</em></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Setzt den Sprachwert des Feed auf <code>de</code> (dafür hat WordPress keine sichtbare Option)</li>
</ul>

de_DE

Replace non-ASCII characters for installs that set the German language as a primary language.

<p>NOTE: recent WordPress versions already properly transliterate umlauts if the<br />
site language is German. In that case, German Slugs is no longer needed.</p>
<p>While creating a post or page, WordPress automatically suggests a permalink. If<br />
your permalink structure contains the %postname% tag, then the title of your<br />
post or page will be used, simplified by conversion to lowercase, replacing<br />
spaces with hyphens, removing certain punctuation characters and removing<br />
diacritics from latin letters.</p>
<p>Thus, by default, ä is replaced with a, ö with o, ü with u and ß with s (similar<br />
for capital letters). For German, the conventional transliteration is ä to ae, ö<br />
to oe, ü to ue and ß to ss (sometimes sz in Austria, this is not yet supported).<br />
This plugin makes your WordPress apply the conventional transliteration.</p>
<p>I wrote this plugin because manually correcting WordPress’s suggestions is a<br />
considerable hassle, especially if you decide to change the title afterwards.</p>

German Slugs

German Slugs properly transliterates umlauts and the letter ß appearing in titles for slugs (i.e. for pretty permalinks).
