 * Go to wp_hss_albums and wp_hss_images and change database collation from latin1_swedish_ci
   to utf8_general_ci title, description and name, description

 * Hi,
    in the database is no wp_hss_albums or wp_hss_images tables. There is only
   one table with the name wp_lhrss_plugin which i have changed the collation to
   utf8_general_ci but nothing happened.
 * Any other idea??
    Thanks
