• Hi all!
    So, first of all, my blog site is: http://www.freeweb.hu/daveny/
    And I’m using OrangeSky template, which works properly. My blog uses UTF-8 and every character works properly too.
    But after I installed francey.org’s Revolution #09 template, my hungarian characters like ö,ü,ó,Å‘,ú,á,ű,í doesn’t appear. Sorry, they appear but wrongly. For example ö looks like this: #>@ or something like this.
    What can I do?
    I put this (@charset “utf-8”;) into my style.css, but id doesn’t work. (I just tried this, I have never developed PHP or CSS)
    So, what shall I do to make my francey.org’s Revolution #09 template works with hungarian characters?

  • the problem solved…

    my provider make software upgrade on server, and this cause the problem.

    hello i see your problem and i know how to fix it .
    1 you must save the template with notepad after you add the utf-8 meta tag with file save as utf-8 coding from notepad

    and database must be in utf-8 format 😉

    Hi!

    I have a problem with the big (capital) “Á” (Á) and “Í” (Í) characters. The pages display another character instead. Lowercase ones display correctly.

    I have WP2.0 and the hungarian language pack installed.

    Also, in header.php I have the characterset defined the way Jinsan suggested . In the admin panel I tried it with the default “UTF-8”, and with “ISO-8859-2”, it didn’t change anything.

    Any suggestions?

    tm,
    1. It is good to upgrade to 2.0.2 – the latest stable and secure version.
    2. It must be something with your DB. Does it have utf-8 encoding? You can change it, if it doesn’t. (However, changing the character set/encoding might affect older posts!)

    I do have version 2.0.2, sorry. I just wanted to state, that it’s not the 1.5 or earlier I’m using. So that’s sorted.

    As for the encoding of the database… I have mentioned this problem to my host already (they set up the database for me), and he said that it must be something in the encoding of the files, and that I should check, wheter they’re UTF-8 (so I guess they use that encoding, otherwise he wouldn’t have asked that). I used Homesite to edit the php files, and first it saved the files in ANSI. After this conversation with my host, I changed my settings, so now I can see what encoding the files use, this way I’m sure they’re all UTF-8…

    BTW, I see the exact same problem on the blog-o-tom pages, where the hungarian package originates…

    What’s next? 🙂

    So, let me just clarify this: the non-correct characters show up in:
    a) text input by you = posts or Pages?
    b) in the admin interface?
    c) in the WP files due to the translated strings?

    Only a).
    Can’t remember, if the translated strings have those characters…
