Encoding as UTF-8 not working for special chars

I am hoping that someone is still looking at this forum, it seems like there hasn’t been much activity.

The import is choking on the following characters: é and ?.

I have saved as .csv with UTF-8 encoding, but it continues to fail with the following error: “Skipped 1 posts (most likely due to empty title, body and excerpt).”

If I remove those characters, the record is imported without any problems.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
