Doesn’t search with ñ

Hello I have the plug-in installed in https://fesaalp.com/programacion
Everything works fine except when I do a name search and in it I used the letter ñ. For example if I search the word mañana it should show a movie that has this word and it doesn’t.

Thank you!

The same happen with words with tilde. For example adiós. Thanks

I am seeing errors in the browser console.

Your theme also does not seem to be able to cope with those characters?

Compare these pages:

https://fesaalp.com/?s=mañana

Our Text search use the WordPress search to find such posts, and, as your installation of WordPress does not find them, it passes nothing to our filter.

You first need to fix WordPress so it ‘sees’ those characters. I think this is an encoding issue. It might be in the wp-config.php file, where these two settings set the language (they will look something like this if they are there):

define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('DB_COLLATE', '');

You might be able to comment these lines out. Similarly, you should check which character set your SQL database is actually using (the collation).

I do not believe this is an actual issue with our plugin.

Hi! Yes, you were right.
Just for you to know te problem was the Ithemes Secury, I had to disable the option of filtering no english characters.

Thank you!
