Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Atahualpa 3.4.2 bug - html entities instead of UTF8 chars in meta fields

Hello,
When using SEO features of v. 3.4.2 the html entities apperars in the page meta fields instead of UTF 8 chars. Attached picture shows the problem. I used Polish language and Polish chars. I guess the same might happent with German Umlauts.
Is it a bug? Maybe there is a workaround (I know one of them - use one of SEO plugins - I rather want to stay with atahualpa's SEO options).
Best regards
Piotr

Upload this as functions/bfa_meta_tags.php (and rename the existing bfa_meta_tags.php to bfa_meta_tags.php-OLD or so before) and see if that works

Hello,

It is almost OK - the letter "ó" is translated to &oacute;.

I tried other solution - I removed "htmlentities" function call and just put raw strings as below. Is it OK or not?
regards
Piotr

[...]

// META DESCRIPTION & KEYWORDS for (only) the HOMEPAGE.
if ( function_exists('is_front_page') ? is_front_page() : is_home() ) {
#if ( is_home() ) {
if ( trim($bfa_ata['homepage_meta_description'] ) != "" ) {
echo "<meta name=\"description\" content=\"" .
# htmlentities($bfa_ata['homepage_meta_description'],ENT_QUOTES) . "\" />\n";
$bfa_ata['homepage_meta_description'] . "\" />\n";
}
if ( trim($bfa_ata['homepage_meta_keywords'] ) != "" ) {
echo "<meta name=\"keywords\" content=\"" .
# htmlentities($bfa_ata['homepage_meta_keywords'],ENT_QUOTES) . "\" />\n";
$bfa_ata['homepage_meta_keywords'] . "\" />\n";
}
}

// META DESCRIPTION & KEYWORDS Tag for single post pages and static pages:
if ( is_single() OR is_page() ) {
$bfa_meta_description = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'bfa_ata_meta_description', true);
$bfa_meta_keywords = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'bfa_ata_meta_keywords', true);
if ( $bfa_meta_description != '' ) {
echo "<meta name=\"description\" content=\"" .
# htmlentities($bfa_meta_description,ENT_QUOTES) . "\" />\n";
$bfa_meta_description . "\" />\n";
}
if ( $bfa_meta_keywords != '' ) {
echo "<meta name=\"keywords\" content=\"" .
# htmlentities($bfa_meta_keywords,ENT_QUOTES) . "\" />\n";
$bfa_meta_keywords . "\" />\n";
}
}

// META DESCRIPTION Tag for CATEGORY PAGES, if a category description exists:
if ( is_category() AND strip_tags(trim(category_description())) != "" ) {
/* the category description gets its own ASCII code filter from WP,
but <p> ... </p> tags will be included by WP, so we remove them here: */
echo "<meta name=\"description\" content=\"" .
strip_tags(trim(category_description())) . "\" />\n";
}

What letters did not work after the change suggested by me, and does it work now with your version?

There is only one letter translated to entity (both in upper and lower case) as follows:
"ó" -> &oacute;
"Ó" -> &Oacute;
