Use a # (number sign) in categories name!

  • Hi, i started a IT blog in albanian language!

    i started creating categories, C++, C, C#.

    when i want to create the C# it says category already exists!

    well C & C# are not the same or? so how can i create it! is there any html that i can use like & for &!

    or any other technique!

  • You can’t use URL special characters in category slugs. The special characters will be stripped, so that two categories that only differ by a special character will appear to be the same category. Try giving C++ a category slug of c-plus-plus instead.

    no, i didnt say in the slug, but in the category name!

    i already did the c-plus-plus-techs for c++, and c-techs for C, but now I need c-num-techs for C#

    But when i type the # in category, wordpress strips it and then C#=C, and i already have Category name C so it creates a conflict!
