To replace Greek characters in WooCommerce search, you can use the woocommerce_product_search_query filter. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:

function replace_greek_characters_in_search( $search_query ) {
    // Define an array of Greek characters and their replacements
    $greek_chars = array(
        'α' => 'a',
        'β' => 'b',
        'γ' => 'g',
        // Add more Greek characters and their replacements here
    );

    // Replace Greek characters in the search query
    $search_query = str_replace( array_keys( $greek_chars ), array_values( $greek_chars ), $search_query );

    return $search_query;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_search_query', 'replace_greek_characters_in_search' );


In the code above, we define an array $greek_chars that contains Greek characters as keys and their corresponding replacements as values. We then use str_replace to replace these Greek characters in the search query.


You can add more Greek characters and their replacements to the array as needed. Remember to adjust the replacements to match the specific characters you want to replace.


Add this code to your theme's functions.php file or a custom plugin to apply the replacements to WooCommerce search queries.
