Hi Bruce,

if you are using Zebra, there are 2 files you can tweak to deal with
diacritics:

etc/zebradb/etc/word-phrase-utf.chr (searching, when not using ICU)
etc/zebradb/lang_devs/en/sort-string-utf.chr (sorting)

Which file is used is determined by your Zebra configuration, default
would be en.

The en file for sorting is a bit more simple than the others. I'd
recommend checking the fr (French) and el (Greek) files in comparison to
get an idea on how this works.

For a bug report about this see:

*BugĀ 16839*
<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16839> - Sort
Title (A-Z) doesn't work with some non-latin alphabets

Hope this helps,

Katrin

Hi gang,

Thought I'd bump this as I haven't seen a response in a month:

My library has an international collection which means a lot of
diacritical marks. I need help getting this to sort in a more nearly
alphabetical order. I haven't been able to find guidance in the
manual, wiki, or the archives of this list. I'd be happy to just have
a link to a possible solution.

Koha 19.11.08 installed from packages
Linux Debian 8.3.0
Zebra 2.0.59
