   when trying to change the title book to its hebrew translation i get these strange characters: ספר��

   when writing a review in hebrew i get:
   ???????????????????????????

   this happened also in the original version. i tried re-saving all as utf-8 but the problem persists. Also tried throwing the title within the plugin code.

   Please Help

   I don't think it's the plugin; I have no problem copying Hebrew characters and having them display correctly in the sidebar widget.

   The likely culprit is a botched ANSI-UTF8 conversion somewhere; or, your font has no support for Hebrew characters.

   Hi,

   I faced the same problem after 3 hours I figure out it like this.

   I am running wordpress with xampp version 1.7.2. Open xampp control panel. Click on the Admin button for Mysql or goto http://localhost/phpmyadmin/. There you will have the database you created for wordpress on left menu. In my case the name of database is 'wordpress'. Click onto the wordpress database. You will see the db structure on the right. There you will find the column saying 'Collation'. Check the collation for your widget. In my case it was wp_testimonial and it was displaying latin1_swedish_ci. Try changing it to utf8. Or open it by clicking on to the second icon in Action column (that is structure). You will see the structure for your plugin. There you edit one by one all rows (with the second pencil icon in Actions panel) and change it to utf8_unicode_ci...

   Hope this might help...

   Release 5.1.2.0 should help this problem.

   yes you were right. by the way - any idea on how to add more books to the widget without editing the templates?

    No way right now—numbers of books are run entirely via the templates.
