    In the default thema the author url is shown with error. For example in Dutch it will show this:
    Bekijk alle berichten van Marco Raaphorst &arr;

    Indeed, with that &arr; at the end. It has been like this since the default theme was available. Didn't nobody notice this?

    I think <a class="url fn n" is causing the trouble. And should be fixed.

    @alchymyth I am running my own wordpress installs since 2005. For example http://melodiefabriek.nl

    You must have been mistaken. What gave you that idea?

    What gave you that idea?

    web search - as you didn't post a link to point to the 'offending' code, i searched the text you posted - which resulted in a wordpress.com site with the exact match.

    well, this is not your problem, then.

    can you point directly to the page/post in the last site you linked to, where this &arr; shows?

    it could be an error in the language file (?)

    That code is included in the default theme which is included with the WordPress installation.

    as this displays correct in the english original version of Twenty Ten, the error seems to be coming from the localisation, i.e. the language files;

    themes/twentyten/languages/nl_NL.po
    Bekijk alle berichten van %s <span class=\"meta-nav\">&arr;</span>

    instead of &arr; is has to read (because the editor is replacing it, here again: & r a r r ; (to be used without the spaces))

    the best place to report this might be:
    http://nl.wordpress.org/

    -- or you can repair it yourself for your selfhosted blog:

    No, it seems a characterset kind of bug. The PO's are both clean (I have checked them to make sure).

    they can be as 'clean' as they like:

    if it is a character set problem, it would show in the original enlish version as well - it does not.

    because it is a translation issue, it only shows in the dutch localisation of Twenty Ten.

    if you would edit the po file, and change the wrong translation line, the error should dissappear.

    I searched the PO but couldn't find it.

    i got the language file from the latest download of the dutch wordpress package, from http://nl.wordpress.org/

    it is in this location:
    /wp-content/themes/twentyten/languages/nl_NL.po

    this is the english original line:
    View all posts by %s <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;</span>

    you can see the 'rarr' there.

    (there is another languages file in /wp-content/languages/nl_NL.po which does not contain the text)
