I changed post_title, post_contents, and post_name to allow for utf by changing collating sequence to: utf8_general_ci
Then using add new post, I type for the title three Hebrew ALEFs.
The post_title is in Hebrew in the database, but the post_name has this value:
%d7%90%d7%90%d7%90
According to Charmap, ALEF has a hex value of 05D0.
So what does the d790 represent? Some other encoding?
I’m looking to write a program to mass upload a bunch of posts, so I need to know what to put in the post_name field, and what it is used for.
it’s the URL encoded version of your text.
outputs:
post_name
is the slug, so the characters have to be URL-safe.
