Can the character replacement string be changed for Journal Entries?

[patrickdumontel]

We are implementing journal entries in our AEM 5.6.1 implementation. When a user saves an entry and the title has spaces or other illegal characters, the characters get replaced with an underscore (_); Is there an OSGi setting or some other way to change that character to a hyphen, like the page manager does in the site admin? Our SEO department insists on using hyphens.

If there is no information on this in the AEM docs -- please file a bug at: http://helpx.adobe.com/marketing-cloud/experience-manager.html.

no such settings in osgi. You need to prevent by validating/changing at client side. at server side use filter or listener.

The name of the page is not a parameter; and changing the title is not a good idea because it still needs to be the jcr:title property. Filter could be good, but again, the name resolution is going to happen inside JournalImpl from the title.

The actual class would actually be JournalEntryImpl, the implementation of the JournalEntry interface, CollabUtil.save does the actual saving of the page.
