Ya I ended up having to go in and deleting the db manually and reinstall the plugin for it to work. Looks good now, thanks.

yes your example is working but its not on my site, the upgrade must have messed up. Any advice? a clean install of the plugin?

Also apparently even the shortcode isn’r working, the upgrade must have messed something up.

Would appreciate your advice on how to move forward.

the problem is still happening, however I did some research and I might have a solution. The db needs to be “utf8_unicode_ci”

another soultion I found https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13439324/arabic-language-in-php-mysql-appears-question-marks-in-html

and another possible answer https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/108883/need-help-to-arabic-text-in-wordpress

Hope these help and thanks for the support.

Well, I’m no expert, but I’m assuming that the problem is that Arabic is unicode UTF-8 and the plugin is reading it as roman and storing it as so. I’ve never had this problem in resent years with any of the plugins I’ve used.

here you go https://wp.me/P2L5iO-qW

Also cant find the translation file?

Thanks for the support, another problem I ran into, it seems the plugin doesn’t handle Arabic at all, when enter information in Arabic all the characters are changed to questions marks. It seems like its not using UTF8?

please ignore this post as it was in error.

ok I think I might have found a solution still testing it.

I used the “Admin in English” plugin with the “RTL Tester” plugin and it seems to be working right. My site is under development so not sure about the effects on a working site.

Ok I don’t know how or why but everything went back to normal!

Thanks for the help, the link couldn’t help me.

I appreciate you taking the time.

I appreciate your help Kim09, thanks.

Hi Kim09,

Thanks for the help, its one way to do it but its not how I want to do it also I still need to figure how to redirect more.

To clarify I need a specific category to appear in one page but not another, I don’t want to foreword all posts to a specific page.

As for my website its https://www.sisc.info

Once again thanks for the help.

glad it worked for you guys.

Happy to say 2.8 is working for me with no problems till today.

Try this, it worked for me.
Go to tools and select upgrade, it will tell you that you have the latest. So ask it to Re-install automatically. After it does that the auto upgrade to 2.8 appeared to me. I just upgraded and all was good.
