Justin Blanton’s Smart Archives: character encoding issue

    Hi everyone,

    I am trying to get Justin Blanton’s Smart Archives plugin to work with my thème en devenir. But there is an encoding issue. I just can’t get this thing to work properly.

    My site is in French, UTF-8 encoded (fr_FR). The plugin seems to pull some ISO-8859-1 encoding. And I do not know what to do with that.

    Have a look at my archives page

    The plugin code goes like this:

    function smartArchives($format='both', $catID='') {

	global $wpdb, $PHP_SELF;
    setlocale(LC_ALL,WPLANG); // set localization language
    $now = gmdate("Y-m-d H:i:s",(time()+((get_settings('gmt_offset'))*3600)));  // get the current GMT date
    $bogusDate = "/01/2001"; // used for the strtotime() function below

    …in part

    Thanks for the help. Or if you know a better way to present archives, I will gladly be listening to suggestions.

    Thanks

    Patrick

    Everything is generated by the PHP program, so it looks. There are no months in the script itself. Perhaps it has to do with setlocale(LC_ALL,WPLANG); // set localization language Any idea?

    I tried to get in touch with the plugin developer, but unless his spam filter trashes my message because there is a hyperlink inlcuded in it, he does not respond.

    Thanks for any suggestion.

    The clue is explained here:

    strftime()

    The solution, for me:

    setlocale(LC_ALL,’fr_FR.UTF-8′); // set localization language French, with UTF-8 encoding
