When I upgraded wp to 2.2, my Japanese text got scrambled.
I went back and copy/pasted the original Japanese into the post... but the text is still showing up as ???
I made new posts with Japanese text, and it's still ???
What happened...? And how do I fix this?

I read over that, and I checked my wp-config.php.
it says define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); exactly like that documentation said.
The documentation says exactly NOT TO HAVE IF IT IS AN UPGRADE...
There really must be a problem how they teach people to read! Quote:
Warning for those performing upgrades: If DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE do not exist in your wp-config.php file, DO NOT add either definition to your wp-config.php file unless you read and understand Converting Database Character Sets. Adding DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE to the wp-config.php file, for an existing blog, can cause problems — as Ryan Boren says, "your queries will go boom!"

oh haha
I read the "do not add" and I figured I wasn't adding anything so I skipped over that.
so are you saying I should delete
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('DB_COLLATE', '');that's in my wp-config.php?
I want some confirmation in case my wp goes kaboom...
