Share to Twitter (Greek URL)

Posted in: Newspaper

When I post a news item, and try to click on the Twitter share button, if the url that is about to be shared contains greek chars, then the link on pop-up appears something like that

http://www.securitynews.gr/eset-%cf%83%cf%85%ce%bc%ce%b2%ce%bf%cf%85%ce%bb%ce%ad%cf%82-%ce%b3%ce%b9%ce%b1-%ce%b1%cf%83%cf%86%ce%ac%ce%bb%ce%b5%ce%b9%ce%b1-%cf%83%cf%84o-android/ via @SECURITYNEWS

The true link should be: http://www.securitynews.gr/eset-συμβουλές-για-ασφάλεια-στo-android/

On another greek blog, powered by the TagDiv’s Newspaper template, same issue, on the same browser, doesn’t exist. Links -at least appear- to be shared correctly on the browser (and yes, I know that some browsers do not support greek chars on the url and everything is messy).

Any suggestions?

Hi,

Please try to localize your WordPress install to Greek language. http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language
This should fix the problem.

Thank you

Hello,

There isn’t any way to avoid that, ah? I prefer the english language on my wp-admin.

Hi,

Try this, to edit manually the header, and add your language there: http://screencast.com/t/YZswe01q4FD

I’m not sure that the correct one is el-GR, put there your language.

Hope this work.
Thanks!
