• Hello Guys,
    I have a big problem using WordPress 2.7. I have specials characters on muy Administration Dashboard (? ? ? ) and I can’t publish any post.
    I searched on the WordPress Forum page and After that I made the following procedure:

    1) I checked the Firefox settings. It has UTF-8 configured.

    2) I checked the Reading setting on my Blog and the setting is UTF-8

    3)Then I configured the wp-config.php with the following value:
    define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
    define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ‘utf8_unicode_ci’);

    4)I checked my phpMyAdmin and I found the following variable:
    character set client utf8
    (Valor global) latin1
    character set connection utf8
    (Valor global) latin1
    character set database latin1
    character set results utf8
    (Valor global) latin1
    character set server latin1
    character set system utf8
    character sets dir /usr/share/mysql/charsets/
    collation connection utf8_unicode_ci
    (Valor global) latin1_swedish_ci
    collation database latin1_swedish_ci
    collation server latin1_swedish_ci

    5)I installed the UTF-8 DB Converter on my Blog and I ran the plug-in and everything was ok.

    I made everything but the problem still happend.

    Can you help me with this issue??

    Note: The only think that I saw is the the characters changes between ? ? ?

    Any help with this ?? I can’t write on my page.

    Hi, I don’t know if this will help you…

    I’m from Chile, so I write in spanish. When I upgraded to 2.8.5, I had the same problem with the accents. Música became M?sica…
    so…

    I went to my wp-config file and did this:

    define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘latin1’);
    define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);

    I don’t know if that is your problem, but since nobody answered your question, maybe you should try it.
