CE Phoenix Cart Forum

I've installed an online setup to check if there was any difference - and yes it is. I've found this:

- When I search for an special character that's not in english language I get no results, no matter if the character is in the title of any product.
- When I do the same on the onlune setup it returns all the results that includes special characters and also their simplification, i.e. if I search ofr "ö" I get all the products wiith the "ö" character plus all the ones that includes a regular "o". Same happens with other special characters (ñ returns also n, á returns also a, ç returns also c and so on. So phoenix nicely returns some kind of "sloppy search" so it doesn't matter if you don't type special characters correctly.

For debugging the problem with USU first I have to find out why my local setup is not returning the correct results because it's not practical uploading files by ftp when coding -so if you have some ideas about where to look at please let me know!

Edit: local setup is corrupting characters on search query:

Code: Select all

AND pd.language_id = 1 AND ((pd.products_name LIKE '%�%' OR p.products_model LIKE '%�%' OR m.manufacturers_name LIKE '%�%') )

Strange - I hope it will be easy to find out what's happening.

Update: Found that the issue in my localhost setup is happening at the construct function of search class. First thing it does is:

Code: Select all

      $search_str = trim(strtolower($search_str));

If I'm not wrong strtolower should not alter non-ascii characters, but for some reason it's changing these to � in my local setup but not online. Maybe it's because my localhost is hosted on a windows OS?

Found this comparison, maybe it will help...

I've read several pages but could not find the issue. I've posted it in the general help forum.

Anyway with the mb_strtolower fix the search works again so I'll debug the problem with USU.

Got it: In /includes/apps/ultimate_seo_urls/abstracts/page_modules.php - Line 231 - Function cleanParams() add urlencode to $value:

Code: Select all

        $param = $key . '=' . urlencode($value);

and everything works perfect @Piernas: please confirm!
