hi to all
I am starting to use Phoca download component , but I need to SEF and SEO my site for better results.and I use unicodeslug for my joomla site (because we use Farsi Language and its a RTL language).
it works fine for my joomla site.but I need to use this for phoca download.
I activate my SEF in joomla and it shows http://................/category/1-(alias).html
alias in english or latin working well. but I want to change it to Persian language.
In another words,I want to use my Alias names in unicode with Phoca download.
I really Appreciate phoca teamwork for all of the good products.and I appreciate any help that solve my problem.
thank you all.

Hi, in fact no experiences there :idea: Links are created by Joomla! framework's JRoute method but how it handles not latin characters, no idea :-(

How aliases are made, how they are stored in database, maybe the alias creating needs to be changed for the Phoca Download in code :idea:

Actually I appreciate your respond, and I tried to make a menu Item for category and it worked fine.but in this trick I should made menu for every category and every section! and its a freeware download website and there is lots of section and category!
even for better seo I should made a menu for every single file
:x :x :x :x
Its so harsh and ugly to end-users!
Is there any solution or something ? or why in my joomla alias name works fine with unicode but in phoca download...?

Hi, as I wrote for now I have no idea as this should work the same way :idea: :( See no reason to work differenly :idea: :( For me it is difficult to test it as I have no area where to test it.

In our language I use utf-8 diacritics but this work not for Phoca Download nor for the whole Joomla! on my server, so the aliases are created the same way. This is the reason why e.g. I have created this plugin:
