In reply to: Geographic TrackingThanks. I also found out that I was wrong about WP still using it, but the plugin works fine.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: E-mail address is no longer registeredThe problem seems solved. As I went through my plugin list, I decided I didn’t need the Moderate Pingbacks and Moderate Trackbacks plugins and deactivated them (and therefore I didn’t mention them). It would appear that (one of) these two plugins caused the error.

In reply to: change from ISO-8859-15 to UTF-82fargon – your method is much the same, just using command line mysql tools and conversion tools. Too bad you didn’t submit your solution here, as I asked for a solution already 8 months ago 😉

In reply to: change from ISO-8859-15 to UTF-8pqs – I just had the same problem, having used ISO-8859-1 for almost a year, typing danish letters (ÆØÅæøå). Here is what I did:
- Install WordPress 1.2 One Click Backup – or newer if you use wp1.5
- Backup database
- Copy/download the database file from server to workstation
- Open database file in UltraEdit – other text editors may also work (but Notepad++ didn’t)
- Use File -> Conversions -> ASCII to UTF-8, to convert your accented letters from ISO-8859-1x to UTF-8
- Upload edited database file to server – use a new name, to preserve the original file!!
- Restore the edited database
- View site – check the RSS 2.0 feed for sanity (my feed had errors, as I had used
æinstead of æ in a post title – look for that kind of errors)
I can’t guarantee that it works for you too, so be sure to keep the original database backup!! But it worked fine for me, so I don’t see why it shouldn’t work for you too.

In reply to: Problem with Problem with Kitten’s Spam WordsNo, I haven’t contacted Kitten – found it appropriate to ask here first, to see if others had encountered the same problem. If that’s not the case, I’ll try Kitten next.

In reply to: Special Charactersxibe: I see nothing in particular in the posts, but my RSS feed was not accepted by my local weblog index – Blogbot.dk. This was not due to the actual postings containing special characters, but rather special characters in the Tagline (a setting under General Options).
If I look at the page source, the special characters, like æ, ø and Ã¥, is not translated into æ, ø and å. Mozilla doesn’t mind, but I’m not sure that all browser will understand these letters. In WP 1.0.2 the characters were, as far as I recall, translated into Entity numbers.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Special CharactersI have sort of the same problem after upgrading to Wp1.2 – when using æ, ø and Ã¥ in posts, they are no longer translated into Entity numbers ( i.e. æ for æ). This worked fine in WP1.0.2.
