To generate slugs for URLs:
<?php
echo URLify::filter (' J\'étudie le français ');
// "jetudie-le-francais"
echo URLify::filter ('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
// "lo-siento-no-hablo-espanol"
?>To generate slugs for file names:
<?php
echo URLify::filter ('фото.jpg', 60, "", true);
// "foto.jpg"
?>To simply transliterate characters:
<?php
echo URLify::downcode ('J\'étudie le français');
// "J'etudie le francais"
echo URLify::downcode ('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
// "Lo siento, no hablo espanol."
/* Or use transliterate() alias: */
echo URLify::transliterate ('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
// "Lo siento, no hablo espanol."
?>To extend the character list:
<?php
URLify::add_chars (array (
'¿' => '?', '®' => '(r)', '¼' => '1/4',
'¼' => '1/2', '¾' => '3/4', '¶' => 'P'
));
echo URLify::downcode ('¿ ® ¼ ¼ ¾ ¶');
// "? (r) 1/2 1/2 3/4 P"
?>To extend the list of words to remove:
<?php
URLify::remove_words (array ('remove', 'these', 'too'));
?>To prioritize a certain language map:
<?php
echo URLify::filter (' Ägypten und Österreich besitzen wie üblich ein Übermaß an ähnlich öligen Attachés ',60,"de");
// "aegypten-und-oesterreich-besitzen-wie-ueblich-ein-uebermass-aehnlich-oeligen-attaches"
echo URLify::filter ('Cağaloğlu, çalıştığı, müjde, lazım, mahkûm',60,"tr");
// "cagaloglu-calistigi-mujde-lazim-mahkum"
?>Please note that the "ü" is transliterated to "ue" in the first case, whereas it results in a simple "u" in the latter.
