Hi, I have a Gallery 3 installation with over 15.000 imported images. There are about 750 tags in use. The dataase collation that Gallery3 is using is utf8_general_ci, except Ratings using latin1_swedish_ci.

Searching for tags with ÅÄÖåäö in them gives no results even if there is over 100 tags including these characers. On the All Tags page, I can see the tags but tags starting with for instance Ö is weirdly sorted, the are sorted inside the list of tags starting with O but under separate Ö headers (many).

Any ideas why I cannot get any search results for these words?

Cheers Ben

Works for me search for DÜPPE at:
http://floridave.com/gallery3/
perhaps you are searching with less than 4 characters? http://codex.galleryproject.org/Gallery3:Modules:short_search_fix
Searching for Öweirdly works as well for me.

Ditto, @floridave. A full range of accented characters works for me as well (on each of 2 gallery installs).

Also, as for the sorting, if I understand what you said, that's expected behavior. "O" and "Ö" are not considered the same letter. But I'll better know after I see what's actually happening.
