Does anyone know how to have the clean url's that are generated to be lowercase?

Cheers,
Al.

Try this: Open include/func/func.clean_urls.php and find

return $generated_url;

and replace with

return strtolower($generated_url);

Backup file first, this is not tested

hey - thanks for the response, that makes perfect sense to me, but doesn't seem to work for some reason!

I've tried converting to lowercase in a few areas and can't seem to find a solution!

This should work when you click "auto generate clean url's" in admin/tools. It won't work when you edit/create product. Where are you trying to have this functionality?

Hey Steve - yeah I'm trying to have the lowercase url generated as the user adds the product to the store.

I've tried auto generating the clean URL's but still no joy - I've also cleared all the cache from my browser and the server.

I've had a look in my DB as well and can't see any change which is strange!

Well the auto generate works only on products without clean urls so if your products have clean urls assign to them already auto generate won't change anything.
Open skin1/check_clean_url.js and find

to_field.value = from_field.value.replace(/[\&]/g, '-and-').replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9._-]/g, '-').replace(/[-]+/g, '-').replace(/-$/, '');

and after add

to_field.value = to_field.value.toLowerCase();

Now when you add new product in admin and enter product name and then move out of that field the url will be lower cases

that's awesome, thanks!

I try to do this in 4.3.2 and than all of my pages are white screens including the admin part.

How can i do it in 4.3.2 ?

Thanks

It should work in 4.3.2 as well. Double check how you did it

[divy]

oops. I missed the brackets.

Thanks Steve.

Is there a way to add a additional field (short description, it have only 2-3 words) along with the name of the product in the url as well as in the page title ?
