Strip all accents from accented characters

[steve1]

Is there a way to strip all accents from accented characters (for example: à, è, ì, ò, ù, À, È, Ì, Ò, Ù = a, e, i, o, u A, E, I, O, U)

You probably have to write your own list of replacement pairs

Not automatically for ALL accented characters, but for the ones you define:

Replace special characters (á -> a, ç -> c) from tags when naming the file

You can use $replace like this: $replace(%FIELDNAME_WITH_SPECIAL_CHARS%,á,a,é,e,í,i,ó,o,ú,u,Á,A,É,E,Í,I,Ó,O,Ú,U,ü,u,Ü,U,ñ,n,Ñ,N,è,e,ê,e,ì,i,î,i,ï,i,à,a,â,a,ò,o,ô,o,ù,u,û,u,ç,c,Ç,C,ß,ss,œ,oe,Œ,OE) From the documentation about "multiple parameter pairs y and z": [image]
