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 pronouncing 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.

Features

  • Automatically removes accented characters from text content uppercase transformed through CSS.
