[Plugin: Duplicator] Problems with character encoding

    I’ve noticed some problem with character encoding:

    All values in the MySQL Dumb are empty. Iconv cleared all strings (strange). If i removed the iconv in the functions.php it worked perfect.
    //$row[$j] = iconv("UTF-8", "ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT", $row[$j]);

    After installing special characters messed up(ö,ä,ü…):
    To fix this I’ve added in the installer template the following line of code right after the mysql_connect:
    mysql_query("set names 'utf8'");

    Great Plugin!

    Regards, Temo

    Hey thanks TemoSayin!!

    I’ll add this as a todo. it will most likely be an option for the different storage types.

    Version 0.2.0 now has a check box on the options dialog to turn off the iconv setting. Just uncheck “Enable database character encoding” and the iconv function will be skipped.
