    Hello, I’m having an issue with “&nbsp”.
    It shows as a letter “?” in Korean like this.(My site use Korean and English)
    I’ve checked the wp-config.php file already, and it sets correctly.
    define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’)

    Could you advise?

    Thanks,

  • Hello @lunacer,

    Thank you for reaching out,

    Three things can affect it:

    1. Check the translation of those texts.
    Open the translation files and ensure that the &nbsp is not in the translation files. Or use these plugins to solve it by changing the text:
    https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/say-what/
    https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/string-locator/
    This is for when you have translation purposes.

    2. It can be a plugin conflict:
    Deactivate all plugins temporarily. If the problem disappears, it indicates a conflict with a specific plugin. Reactivate plugins one by one to identify the culprit.

    3. Update the .htaccess file configuration:
    In some cases, specific rules in your .htaccess file might interfere with character encoding. You can check for any rules related to AddDefaultCharset or mod_headers. If you’re unsure about modifying .htaccess, it’s best to consult your host provider.
    AddDefaultCharset utf-8

    Please recheck your issue and keep us posted.

    I hope it helps.
    Best Regards

    Thank you so much for your help.
    I solved the issue with the plugin “Say What?” by adding two conditions that replace “&nbsp” and “?” with \00a0.

    Thanks again, have a good day.

    You’re welcome.
    I’m glad we could help.

    Have a wonderful day.
