Component:  General       |    Version:  3.8
 Severity:  normal        |   Keywords:
--------------------------+-----------------------------
 {{{
 $author_link = get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' );
 echo $author_link;
 }}}


 and the output will be e.g.

 {{{
 http://example.com/author/džiga
 }}}

 instead of the correct:

 {{{
 http://example.com/author/dziga
 }}}

 Could this be fixed in the next version, because only
 http://example.com/author/dziga will lead to the correct page.
 http://example.com/author/džiga will lead to 404 page.

 Thanks in advance.
