Bonjour encore!
C'ést une problème de PHP-Typography …
(okay, it has been a while since I’ve been talking or writing French … ;-) )

Basically, Kirby-Typography is a port of the wp-Typography, so you should open an issue in that repository in this case.

But If you encounter any issues with my plugin, free to discuss them here :-)

So you would like to have Les « courants ... as the output? Generally, PHP_Typography tries not to interfere with any "smart quotes" that are already present in the text, on the assumption that if they are there, the content writer intended them exactly like this.

Makes sense, I agree here with @mundschenk-at on this. Otherwise, you could end with a lot of unexpected behaviour. Think, it should stay like that.

@fvsch If this is really an issue, you should be able to fix it with a kirbytext::$post filter.

Yes, it's a real issue we have on a project with 80 articles or pages being copied over from simple Word documents. Quotation marks in those documents are always « quoted text », as is the default for Word set up with French settings.

I have no problem with writing a fix on our side (already did this in the project), but I do believe it should be a part of PHP_Typography, so I've argued my point over there. :)

I've just added a branch that includes a fix for this issue.
