Minor bug in case transformation/recognition
-
Hello,
after some experimenting with the plugin, I have to mention something I consider important.Page analysis gives false negatives under certain circumstances. In my case, I use Greek content in my pages. I have set up each page’s SEO according to the plugin’s suggestions. However, the latter does not seem to properly understand Greek (and I guess other languages) characters’ casing.
To illustrate: Let’s have a sample page title, which will also serve as the keyphrase:
“Τ?τλο? Σελ?δα?”
As you can see, the first letter of each word is uppercase. The respective phrase with lowercase letters only would be:
“τ?τλο? σελ?δα?”
The plugin cannot understand that the two phrases are the same. As a result, I would get errors like this:
A meta description has been specified, but it does not contain the target keyword / phrase.The keyword / phrase does not appear in the URL for this page. If you decide to rename the URL be sure to check the old URL 301 redirects to the new one!In the first case, this would happen if I use the keyphrase inside the meta description, but not in the beginning of the sentence (and therefore would use the lowercase-only version).
In the second case, it simply does not understand that ‘Τ?τλο? Σελ?δα?’ (page’s title) is the same as ‘τ?τλο?-σελ?δα?’ (permalink) when the characters are Greek. WordPress itself understands it fine (it created the permalink from the title entered).As you can realise, it is not always feasible to start a sentence using the keyphrase. I am guessing that Google is smart enough to understand everything properly, but I think this must be corrected, as it would be easier for us to know the exact (as much as possible) score our page will achieve in Google.
After all, that’s the main purpose this plugin serves (to guide us how to write content). Right? ??
