Hi,

We are sorting posts on our site alphabetically, but there is a problem with Scandinavian characters (Ä and Ö). Ä is second to last in the finnish alphabet but when sorting in WPSP the letter “Ä” seems to be regarded as an “A”. Is there a solution for this?

Hi there,

This isn’t actually a WPSP plugin problem but a WordPress core issue.

You’ll need to change the collation of titles to match the language you’ll sort things on.

Give these a shot.
