This plugin is available for reference only. Its functionality has been replaced and extended by <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cyr2lat/" rel="ugc">Cyr-To-Lat</a>.
The original author of this plugin is Anton Skorobogatov, who passed away prematurely in 2007. I decided to make it available for installation through the Plugin Browser/Installer. I take no credit for the creation of this plugin.
Converts Cyrillic characters in post slugs to Latin characters. Very useful for Russian-speaking users of WordPress. 
You can use this plugin for creating human-readable links.
Thanks to Alexander Shilyaev for the idea.

Cyr to Lat Enhanced automatically converts Cyrillic, European and Georgian characters in post slugs, term slugs and media file names into Latin characters. 
It helps maintain clean, readable and consistent URLs on WordPress sites that use non-Latin scripts.
The plugin integrates directly with WordPress core sanitization (<code>sanitize_title</code> and <code>sanitize_file_name</code>) and performs transliteration at the moment slugs and filenames are generated. 
It does not modify post content, titles or front-end text. Its scope is strictly limited to URLs and file names.
On activation, existing post and term slugs are converted in the background using safe, batch-based processing via WP-Cron. 
WordPress core APIs are used to preserve permalink integrity and existing redirects.
Transliteration is based on an ISO 9-style mapping table with built-in support for: 
– Russian 
– Belarusian 
– Ukrainian 
– Bulgarian 
– Macedonian 
– Georgian
Locale-specific adjustments are applied automatically, and the transliteration table can be customized using a public filter.
Cyr to Lat Enhanced is intentionally lightweight and focused: 
– no admin interface 
– no settings pages 
– no bidirectional conversion 
– no data collection or tracking
The plugin continues the cyr2lat / cyr3lat lineage and remains compatible with the original approach introduced by Sergey Biryukov.
<h3>Advanced Transliteration</h3>
For advanced transliteration needs such as full content conversion, bidirectional processing, extended language rules and fine-grained control, consider the separate plugin: 
https://wordpress.org/plugins/serbian-transliteration/
That plugin is designed for complex multilingual setups and broader language processing beyond slugs and file names.
<h3>Adoption Notice</h3>
This plugin represents the continued maintenance of the original “Cyr to Lat Enhanced” project from the cyr3lat lineage.
The project has been revived to ensure long-term stability, modern WordPress compatibility and responsible maintenance, while preserving the original behavior and purpose.
