Removing accents from strings in PHP

By Sid, on January 7th, 2011

A simple method for removing accents from strings in PHP:

1 2	$x = strtr($x, "ŠŒŽšœžŸ¥µÀÁÂÃÄÅÆÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÐÑÒÓÔÕÖØÙÚÛÜÝßàáâãäåæçèéêëìíîïðñòóôõöøùúûüýÿ", "SOZsozYYuAAAAAAACEEEEIIIIDNOOOOOOUUUUYsaaaaaaaceeeeiiiionoooooouuuuyy");

  Hi, SID! How did you manage to fix Facebook Like plugin issue with Atahualpa theme? When I enable Facebook Like plugin with Atahualpa theme, I get Like button displayed in the header and the post. I looked at your old comment on the plugin site mentioning the same issue. When I checked out site now, I notice that the issue is now gone. What did you do to get it working? I would appreciate if you can share it. Thanks!

  I fixed it last year and I’ll be damned if I remember what I did. I’m looking at the files and none of them seems modified by hand in that period, so I guess I just tinkered with the settings until it worked. I’ll post back after I dig a bit more or if I remember what I did then.
