:-)

Thank you very much NeutralizeR your trick helped me a lot!!!

Awesome! Thanks for posting your findings and solution :-)

Glad you're enjoying the theme too ;-)

Best,

Chris

After a little research, i found the solution:

----------------------------------
$userData['name'][0]

Offsets in strings can be accessed like arrays. Be aware that this assumes your strings are in a single byte encoding. If you have multi-byte encoded strings, you need:

mb_substr($userData['name'], 0, 1, 'UTF-8' /* (the correct encoding) */)

----------------------------------

I replaced $tag->name[0] in t-tags.php with mb_substr($tag->name, 0, 1, 'UTF-8')

It fixed the display problem.

Then i wanted to separate ö,ü,ç,ş,ı,ğ and o,u,c,s,i,g listings...so my final code is now:

$first_letter = strtoupper (str_replace(array ('ı', 'i', 'ğ', 'ü', 'ş', 'ö', 'ç' ),array ('I', 'İ', 'Ğ', 'Ü', 'Ş', 'Ö', 'Ç' ), mb_substr($tag->name, 0, 1, 'UTF-8') ));

Great theme btw! It makes me want to write :)

These are the problematic characters: "ö,ü,ç,ş,ı,ğ"

What do you suggest, entering the ascii code instead of "ö" for the word "ölüm" each time i add a tag? :)

Well, i did and now the index page lists "ölüm" under "&" instead of "�".

I found a discussion here but it does not provide a solution for me: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-z-index-list-of-tags

Obviously, this is an encoding problem. Everything seems to set to UTF-8 on my side and those characters listed above are displayed without any problems expect the index page.

Hi there,

I'm not aware of a theme fix for this as it has to do with that particular character and how the browser renders it.

Have you tried using the HTML code for that character? http://www.ascii.cl/htmlcodes.htm

Let me know.

Thanks!

Chris

Hello,

On the index page, tags beginning with a Turkish character do not display properly.

The uppercase letter is displayed as "�"

I belive it must be fixed in t-tags.php file.
