Pub Link Fixup Plugin

For non-utf-8 sites, fix up Pub links to use correct encoding.

This plugin performs pub link fixup of the generated HTML page. If Foswiki is configured with a non-utf-8 {Store}{Encoding}, then links to /pub files will be generated with the incorrect encoding.

Even on non-utf-8 sites, Foswiki operates fully with UNICODE and utf-8 encoding in the core and on the web interface. /pub attachment links will be generated assuming the filesnames are utf-8 encoded. This plugin provides a completePageHandler that finds utf-8 encoded links to /pub attachments and re-encodes them to the {Store}{Encoding}.

Enable this plugin to perform the link fixup. It can be safely enabled regardless of the {Store}{Encoding}. If the Plugin detects that the {Store}{Encoding} is utf-8, it quietly disables its completePageHandler.

This is not a complete fix to the issue. It is still strongly recommended that sites convert their Store to utf-8 to avoid these types of encoding issues.

Preferences

This plugin has one expert setting.
  • {Plugins}{PubLinkFixupPlugin}{Debug}. Enable to record before/after of each rewritten link to the Foswiki debug log.
