Funny characters after upgrading to 2.71

  • Hi, I have upgraded to 2.7.1 and there are strange characters — like this — a€?happya€?

    You can see them here: https://www.susiej.com/index.php/grow-better-veggies-with-companion-plants/

    This is how my config.sys file appears:

    // You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
    $table_prefix = ‘wpi4f_’; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!

    // Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
    // chosen language must be installed to wp-content/languages.
    // For example, install de.mo to wp-content/languages and set WPLANG to ‘de’
    // to enable German language support.
    define (‘WPLANG’, ”);
    define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘latin1’);
    define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ‘utf8_general_ci’);

    /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

    define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__).’/’);
    require_once(ABSPATH.’wp-settings.php’);
    ?>

    Is there something here that is causing the characters?
    Thanks

  • This part

    define('DB_CHARSET', 'latin1');
define('DB_COLLATE', 'utf8_general_ci');

    should be

    define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('DB_COLLATE', '');
