What language and character set are you using on your forum? Also, what is your database character set?

Hi Ichbin

    * Server: Localhost via UNIX socket
    * Server version: 5.0.91-community
    * Protocol version: 10
    * User: *******@localhost
    * MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)



I am using English on the forum.  I don't know where to find the character set in the smf admin?

Sorry I just found this post.  I will come up with another solution for now. Thanks for a great portal. O0

Hi just to let you know I run

1.1.13 smf & 1.0RC1

I sorted the issue by converting the Database & Data to UTF-8 via the Admin CP . Remember to select it from the drop down box. :-\ O0
