Sexy Bookmarks and Like Button Turn Hyphens and Quotes to ASCII Text (2 posts)

    Hi:

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    When I use the Sexy Bookmarks Plugin and LIKE Plugin this problem exists.

    When trying to share to Facebook IF I have a hyphen, quotes, etc. in the blog post title, the plugins turn it to something like ASCII Text. I do have the Default Code UTF-8

    This two minute video will show you exactly what I am talking about better than I can explain it.

    I've also discovered that while this happens on most of my blogs, it does not happen on one of the blogs.

    Thanks again.

    UPDATE:

    I've discovered that those blogs I've installed within the last year or less, work find with both the LIKE button plugin and Sexy Bookmarks Plugin when translating my WordPress Blog Titles to be shared on Facebook.

    It seems to me that the blogs having the issues of inserting random characters (ASCII) in place of hyphens, quotation marks, apostrophes, etc. are the older blogs.

    Here is the link to the same video who demonstrates my dilemma - which has NOT been fixed yet!
