Search without diacritics

mobamoba wrote 6 years ago: 1

Is there a way to search non-English shows with keyboards that don't have accent marks? I just put in a new show request for Kordugum because when I searched using my English keyboard, nothing came up. However, now see it's already listed in TV Maze using the diacritic marks as Kördügüm. I'm not sure if there's a way for the database to search for letters without accents as well as letters with, but it would be nice if it did since it would avoid this problem.

Also, I wasn't sure how to delete the new show request once I'd put it in, so perhaps you can delete it at your end because it's no longer necessary. Thanks.

I rejected the show, for the question about the search you need to wait for david to answer :)
