  <p>Right - the config setting you linked to only applies to auto-generated slugs. Content editors can manually change them at will.</p>
  <p>If you want to change that behavior, you'd need to write a custom module/plugin.</p>

  <p>Assuiming we're talking about Craft 4, that'd be the <code>slug</code> column in the <code>element_sites</code> table.</p>

Title: Slug: German "Umlauts" (beyond limitAutoSlugsToAscii) // db storage
ThreadText: # Slug: German "Umlauts" (beyond limitAutoSlugsToAscii) // db storage
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2023-10-18)
  
  Is there a chance to avoid German "Umlauts" (äöüß) for the slug?
  
  I'm aware of this: <https://craftcms.com/docs/4.x/config/general.html#limitautoslugstoascii>  
  But the editors can edit the slug of existing entries -> that is the point where unwanted "Umlauts" can be produced ... :(
  
  Btw: Where is the slug stored in database? Can't find it.

  Right - the config setting you linked to only applies to auto-generated slugs. Content editors can manually change them at will.
  
  If you want to change that behavior, you'd need to write a custom module/plugin.

  Assuiming we're talking about Craft 4, that'd be the `slug` column in the `element_sites` table.
