   Hello all:

   I've recently *tried* to move my WordPress installation from my old hosting provider to GoDaddy.
   The reason why I chose it, is price of course.

   It was hard to import the DB, but definitely i got it.

   Problem comes because I'd like to use utf-8 instead of iso-8559-1 (like i was doing before).

   I found a script looking in this forum, called 'convert-encoding.php' but it showed errors that didn't appeared in my old hosting.
   I think it's due to the mysql version...

   Anyone knows if mysql40 is not utf-8 compatible?

   If not... Why a new installation of wordpress works wonders with utf-8?

   Thanks you in advantage,

   Misósofos

   MySQL 4 is definitely compatible with UTF-8. I've setup numerous blogs on godaddy with it.
