    Hello, I have one more question. I see in source that some symbols are in form of html number.

    For example, instead of single quotation mark there is &#8217. Double quotation mark and dash symbols are also converted to number. Is there some way to repair it?

    Thank you.

    Hi, the problem is, they shouldn’t be in source 🙂 I mean source of website, ctrl+u in browser. It isn’t seo friendly because google bots read html source, not what visitors see.

    But now I don’t think it’s a problem with theme, because when I tried to change it the problem still existed.

    Html has reserved characters like double and single quote marks. WordPress and php replace the reserved characters with the html code that represents the character.

    Google knows what the characters are and doesn’t have a problem with them. They are quite common in html code.
