Special german characters

    I installed ReciPress Reloaded yesterday and it works fine. The only thing is when I add pages for taxonomy like ingredients or tags the letter nav and the h2 for each letter do not display special german chars like ä or ö… It just displays characters like �

    What can I do to fix this? I think it’s no font-problem, as I can see the wrong character already using firebug in Firefox. When I add a var_dump to the rpr_core.php to view the letters-array the wrong character already is there.

    Thanks in advance,
    Johannes

    I found a solution:
    You used in rpr_core.php the php function substr(). When you use mb_substr() it works.

    Hi Johannes,

    could you please tell me the versions of php, your webserver and os. I’ve never seen this problem on my (german) site. Is your database and server configured to use UTF-8? Normally substr shouldn’t cause these kind of problems.
