Latin characters in permalink required – not working

    The permalink rule shows as not checked even though the only characters generate, or edited to be A-Z, a-z, 0-9 and a hyphen.

    Even the automatic generated link from WordPress still shows as an unmet rule.

    Do you know why, or how this can be fixed?

    Thanks, Steve

    Hi @steverobertsuk

    Thanks for using Checklists.

    Sorry, we don’t see that in our testing.

    – Does it help if you save the post as a draft first?
    – Is there a pattern in which posts are flagged?
    – Have you gone through a debugging process with other plugins?

    Hi,

    I have been doing more testing, and I think I have figured out where it thinks there is a problem, when there is not.

    <span id="editable-post-name">11-star-trek-in-…21-and-22-test-2</span>

    The ellipsis is inserted into the span where the UI cannot show a long URL, so the text gets transformed from “episode11-star-trek-in-starlog-magazine-issues-21-and-22”.

    To reproduce the problem, use a long title.

    I have not looked through the plugin code, but if that span is being used, can the following be used instead?:
    <span id="editable-post-name-full">epsiode11-star-trek-in-starlog-magazine-issues-21-and-22-test-2</span>

    Thanks, Steve

    Thanks @steverobertsuk

    That’s very helpful. Yes, I can see it can trip up over an ellipsis, colon and a couple of other characters.

    We’ll work on a fix here: https://github.com/publishpress/PublishPress-Checklists/issues/301
