underscores, uppercase and multiple dots

    Hi,

    The plugin doesn’t work with permalinks such as:

    pdf/2019/file_2_01.pdf
pdf/2019/A.File.pdf

    The underscores get replaced with dashes, the uppercase get converted to lowercase and the first dot gets removed. Resulting in:

    pdf/2019/file-2-01.pdf
pdf/2019/afile.pdf

    Is this as intended or a bug?

    Thanks

    Hi @nicoter,

    the custom permalinks are converted to lowercase by default. You can disable it by using this line of code (just paste it to functions.php file in child theme directory):

    add_filter('permalink_manager_force_lowercase_uris', '__return_false');

    As regards special characters, they also removed by default, but this option can be disabled in Permalink Manager settings (“Strip special characters from slugs“).

    Hi Maciej,

    That helped, thanks!

    Why not add the filter as a setting and enable the settings by default?

    Hi @nicoter,

    I am glad that you manged to make it working.

    I did not add it to the interface, because this option is not widely used and I wanted to keep the settings panel uncluttered.

    Best regards,
    Maciej

    Underscores could be part of the “Strip special characters from slugs” setting?

    They work like that already. If this option is turned off, the underscores (+ dots, commas, | [vertical bars]) are not removed from custom permalinks.

    The only functionality that needs to be deactivated with custom code snippet is automatic conversion to lowercase.
