Hi all,
I am checking out Homebox as a simple service to track stuff at home. I have encountered one issue with language special characters.
When item is written with polish characters it cannot be found when search pattern does not use them. Example below:
Item name: "Środowisko"
I think this might be fixed with SQL table setting "CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci".
I have little experience with SQL tables. However, I wanted to search the topic before writing this idea.
I have also tried to create Organizer app myself before I found this project.
This is important because both search patterns are correct and understandable. The latter is just "lazy".
Using special characters is self explanatory. I guess more homes are like mine. I would be someone that could switch to english. However, other family members don't speak it.
I assume this problem is applicable with other languages like german, french, etc.
Is there a plan to make searches support special characters?
Best regards,
Tomek :D
