I don't know if this depends on Wordpress, Nginx, or what else... But I have this problem:
A wp site uses categories names as permalinks, like site.com/catname/
. Those name are in arabic.
The url looks something like this:
which can be translated in 2 different ways:
https://example.com/%d8%b3%d9%83%d8%b3-hd/ https://example.com/%D8%B3%D9%83%D8%B3-hd/
the first one, with lowercases, works, but the second gives a 404. This creates many issues, also in Google indexing.
How can I make the 2 requests point to the same content?
this
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] = strtolower($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
In the index.php fixes the issue but it's a bad workaround
