Problem with product link after upgrade

Submitted by Klyde on Fri, 2014-01-24 21:20 in

Hello,
I have just update to the last version (I was on 11/09A) and I have a problem with product link when the product name contain special characters. As you can see on this page: {link saved} products link with only letters are ok, but the one with "-" in the name dont work.
I dont understand what could cause this.

Thanks for your help

Hello Klyde,

That looks like a character encoding issue - the hyphen involved is an extended character set version instead of the ASCII "-". The best fix would actually be to apply the mysqli_ upgrade which is part of the PHP 5.5 forward compatibility patch which you can download here. After applying the patch, re-import all feeds and that should do the trick. If not, if you could perhaps drop me an email with the example link and I'll forward a further database mod to ensure database table character set and collation are aligned with the feed data...

Cheers,
David.
