Tags with cyrillic slugs

Hi,
I’m trying to use slugify function in tags.
The solution I took from this post - Cyrillic-aware slugify function
But I can’t make it work.
Can anyone explain how to use this function?
Thanks in advance.

What are you trying to accomplish?

I have russian tags in my front matter, e.g.
tags: “остров”
I want a url of this tag to be looked like this"www.domain.com/blog/tag/ostrov"
instead of this
www.domain.com/blog/tag/остров

You cannot currently do that.

See https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/issues/9134

Actually, that’s not strictly true, but it is a manual process.

hugo new tags/остров/_index.md

Then set the url in front matter:

+++
title = 'Остров'
date = 2023-09-29T12:26:59-07:00
draft = false
url = '/tags/ostrov'
+++

But you will need to do this for every tag.

So as I understand this ‘Cyrillic-aware slugify function’ solution is useless?

For what you’re trying to do, yes.
