I am sorry but I didn’t quite understand what to do with this code, where I should put these lines? /* Plugin Name: Unmanage Posts Description: Require manage_posts capability to manage posts Author: Owen Winkler Version: 1.0 Author URI: asymptomatic.net/ */ add_action(‘admin_menu’,‘ my_admin_menu’); add_filter(‘capabilities_list’, ‘my_caps_list’); // Redefine some menu cap requirements: function my_admin_menu() { // Make the menu variables accessable here: global $menu, $submenu; $submenu[‘edit.php’][5] = array(__(‘ Posts’), ‘manage_posts’, ‘edit.php’); } // Define a new capability for the Role Manager to use: function my_caps_list($caps) { $caps[] = ‘manage_posts’; return $caps; } * could you help me out? thank you * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [newbie: mysql and utf-8](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/newbie-mysql-and-utf-8/) * Thread Starter [cooldown](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cooldown/) * (@cooldown) * [20 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/newbie-mysql-and-utf-8/#post-338260) * emptying cache didn’t help, well maybe i will find a solution one day 🙂 thanks * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [newbie: mysql and utf-8](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/newbie-mysql-and-utf-8/) * Thread Starter [cooldown](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cooldown/) * (@cooldown) * [20 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/newbie-mysql-and-utf-8/#post-338246) * thank you moshu for your attention, i got little bit nervous because of all this problem, so i had to eat a cake to calm down 🙂 * at least i got to the initial problem, at first I made a mistake and put in wp- db after line 43 mysql_query(“SET NAMES ‘utf8′”); so everything got messed up but then I put mysql_query(“SET NAMES ‘utf8′”, $conn); and at least everything went back to normal EXCEPT TWO LETTERS. But I had the same situation before putting SET NAMES, so it didn’t help. * OK I’ll try to explain but I have to say that this is not the problem in WordPress only, this is smth related to mysql encodings… I have the same problem with my Phorum program. * I use UTF-8 everywhere in WordPress and I write it in the Lithuanian language: [http://mokslas.ktv.lt/](http://mokslas.ktv.lt/) I didn’t notice anything wrong when writing posts, all the letters show up correctly, by the way, beside Latin letters Lithuanian has additional letters: ą?ęėįšųūž Problems arise when I try to restore posts, etc. from a backup copy and problems only with TWO letters “ ?” and capital “Š” – you cannot restore them; strange characters show up instead of them when restoring from a backup. You can see this in the first experimental post: [http://mokslas.ktv.lt/](http://mokslas.ktv.lt/) * I have read in forums that this happens with some characters, a bug in mysql or something. But all the guys say that SET NAMES in php code helps; in my case it made no difference though I tried to back through WordPress and through phpMyAdmin. * Maybe there smth wrong when i open .sql backup file in editors like notepad but this is hardly a problem because only two letters are affected. Or maybe mysql_query(“ SET NAMES ‘utf8′”, $conn); should be put in some other places in other files or maybe some other queries should be made I don’t know. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [newbie: mysql and utf-8](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/newbie-mysql-and-utf-8/) * Thread Starter [cooldown](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cooldown/) * (@cooldown) * [20 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/newbie-mysql-and-utf-8/#post-338154) * thanks for the link * unfortunately, this didn’t help ” it got worse, now ALL nonstandard characters became smth like Ä…Ä?ęėįš ųūž * maybe my provider’s mysql server is set incorrectly, i don’t know 🙁 Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total)
