## Descrizione

Hai mai voluto inserire un carattere speciale lavorando con l’editor a blocchi di
WordPress (Gutenberg) e improvvisamente ti sei trovato a rimpiangere i giorni del
Classic Editor con il suo inserimento di caratteri speciali? Non succederà più, 
il plugin Insert Special Characters è qui per facilitare tutti i tuoi desideri di
pubblicazione!

**Nota:** puoi visualizzare il popup con la scorciatoia `ctrl`/`cmd` + `o`.

Development takes place in the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/10up/insert-special-characters).

### Note tecniche

 * Requires PHP 7.4+.
 * Requires [WordPress](https://wordpress.org/) 6.6+
 * Richieste e proposte di modifica sono bene accette nel [repository GitHub](https://github.com/10up/insert-special-characters).

### Extending

To control the available tabs and characters, developers can filter the data set
using the `insertspecialcharacters-characters` JavaScript (`wp.hooks`) filter.

For example, to create a character inserter that only provides currency symbols:

    ```
    wp.hooks.addFilter(
        'insertspecialcharacters-characters',  // The filter name.
        'mycallback', // Our callback namespace.
        function( component ) { // The callback function.

            // Return the categories/characters to display.
            // The data structure is: { category: [ character data ], category2: ... }
            return {
                "Currency": [
                    { "entity": "&dollar;", "hex": "&#0024;", "name": "Dollar Sign", "char": "$" },
                    { "entity": "&euro;", "hex": "&#20AC;", "name": "Euro Sign", "char": "€" },
                    { "entity": "&cent;", "hex": "&#00A2;", "name": "Cent Sign", "char": "¢" },
                    { "entity": "&pound;", "hex": "&#00A3;", "name": "Pound Sign", "char": "£" },
                    { "entity": "&yen;", "hex": "&#00A5;", "name": "Yen Sign", "char": "¥" },
                ]
            };
        }
    );
    ```

## FAQ

### How come I do not see all the special characters?

When a character is displayed using a font that doesn’t support that character, 
a default “not defined” glyph from that font is used. The “not defined” glyph in
most fonts has the appearance of a rectangular box, or some variation of that.

One example of a font with support for wide range of glyphs is the [Noto](https://fonts.google.com/noto)
family by Google Fonts, which can be loaded by the theme to render the missing characters.

As a lover of em dashes, en dashes, diacritics, and typography and Unicode in general,
and a pedant for using the precise, proper characters where they are appropriate,
this plugin does exactly what I need it to do. It works very similarly to the insert-
special-characters feature of MediaWiki’s VisualEditor plugin, which I also love.
Bravo for this, and please keep up the good work.

THANK YOU! I am a typographer from way back when I was hand-setting (and pieing —
the term for spilling) little pieces of metal in the forms of letters, numbers &
dingbats. Special Characters is the WordPress feature I have missed most in Gutenberg,
and your plugin is the first & only that makes inserting Special Characters easy
and enjoyable. Look for a donation from this old type lover! ❤

Thank You! It solves a big problem in Gutenberg, which misses this function!

Thank you for this great plugin! WHY special characters are STILL absent from the
Gutenberg Wordpress editor — though it has been requested numerous times — is quite
the annoyance. This plugin is perfect! Thanks again!

This is perfect for me. Thanks for developing it!If there was an option to move 
it to the main toolbar without the need to use the dropdown, it would be a six-star
product
