   Hi,

   I would like to go ahead and update my install but my current database seems to have characters encoding issues :
   - all my options (header, meta, RSS) are set to UTF8
   - the database tables and fields are latin1
   - as a result, the data stored in the DB look like this in phpmyadmin :

   je suis allàƒÂ© chez AmàƒÂ©lie

   instead of :

   je suis allé chez Amélie

   What would be the best way to set all the data in UTF8 ? I saw g3org3x's plugin but it only modifies the DB structure. I would like to do the data as well.

   Thanks

   I should prolly add that I'm running 2.3.3 at the moment. I started a few years ago with WP 1.2 - encoding was latin1 (ISO-8859-1) back then.
