#4739: Some icelandic letters do not work in page slugs

 Priority:  normal  |   Milestone:  2.2.3    
Component:  i18n    |     Version:  2.2.1    
 Severity:  minor   |    Keywords:           
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 When the page slug is generated from the post title, three icelandic
 letters are not converted correctly. These three letters are Ð ð, Þ þ and
 Æ æ. They should be converted to D d, TH th and AE ae but are not.

 For instance, when I made a post with the title ‘Þátturinn’ the post-slug
 would become ‘þatturinn’ and when I tried to enter that address in my
 address bar it changed to ‘%c3%beatturinn’ and I got a ‘page not found’
 error from Wordpress.

 This can be fixed by adding the following six lines to formatting.txt, in
 the function remove_accents, inside the '''if (seems_utf8($string)) {'''
 condition.

 {{{
 chr(195).chr(144) => 'D',
 chr(195).chr(176) => 'd',
 chr(195).chr(158) => 'TH',
 chr(195).chr(190) => 'th',
 chr(195).chr(134) => 'AE',
 chr(195).chr(166) => 'ae',
 }}}
