	Hello, We have experiencied a little issue with accents when you perform a search for a word with accents. For example: Atenção and Atencao are considered different words, but in may forums apps, accents are not considered in searches Any solution for this thing?

	This is controlled by your database engine. Accented and non-accented searches depend on what database you are using and how you have setup the database. What character set you use for your forum and which collation you use for your database tables. For example if your database is SQL Server and you use the collation SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS - the "AS" at the end means "accent sensitive". Edited by WebWiz-Bruce - 09 January 2009 at 9:11am
