=== Remove Uppercase Accents === Contributors: gsarig Donate link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=9LNETAP9JKVAG Tags: accents, text transform, uppercase, Greek Requires at least: 3.0 Tested up to: 4.9.8 Stable tag: 0.5 License: GPLv2 or later Automatically removes accented characters from text content uppercase transformed through CSS. == Description == Remove Uppercase Accents is a Wordpress plugin that automatically removes accented characters (currently greek) from elements having their text content uppercase transformed through CSS ( with `{ text-transform: uppercase; }` ). Currently the script transforms only greek text, but it can be easily extended to support other languages. Why you would need this: For example, in greek there are accent marks that denote in which syllable you put the stress on when pronnouncing a word. However, when words are written in all UPPERCASE, those accent marks are removed. This rule is not followed by the aforementioned CSS rules, as they just use the corresponding uppercase unicode character. The plugin is based on [jQuery Remove Uppercase Accents for Drupal 7] [drupal plugin] which, in turn, is based on a JS script released under GPL license [on github].
