$sanitizer->pageNameUTF8() method

Sanitize and allow for UTF-8 characters in page name

  • If $config->pageNameCharset is not UTF8 then this function just passes control to the regular page name sanitizer.
  • Allowed UTF-8 characters are determined from $config->pageNameWhitelist.
  • This method does not convert to or from UTF-8, it only sanitizes it against the whitelist.
  • If given a value that has only ASCII characters, this will pass control to the regular page name sanitizer.

“We were really happy to build our new portfolio website on ProcessWire! We wanted something that gave us plenty of control on the back-end, without any bloat on the front end - just a nice, easy to access API for all our content that left us free to design and build however we liked.” —Castus, web design agency in Sheffield, UK
