I don't understand why I didn't get the problems after install then, since UTF8 was specified in config.php, while getting the problem after the upgrade forced me to change it to latin1 in config.php. Have I stumbled onto a bug, or is it something else?</p> <p>Edit: I'm no database ninja, so sorry if I'm not getting things. :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/upgraded-to-0831-special-characters-broken#post-13153 Mon, 14 Jan 2008 18:26:21 +0000 sambauers 13153@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>bbPress will create tables using the character set and collation specified in the config.php file. However it won't change the tables character set or collation if they are already created, as in the case with upgrades like yours.</p> <p>In fact, once installed, the collation value is not used at all, but the character set value is forced on every connection to the database with "SET NAMES 'foo'", where 'foo' is the character set (if it is specified).</p> <p>So if your database is 'latin1', and for some reason we don't address it that way you will get improper character mapping of your data to characters. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/upgraded-to-0831-special-characters-broken#post-13150 Mon, 14 Jan 2008 15:49:32 +0000 tdh 13150@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>For some reason UTF8 worked before, but the db was latin1. Does bbPress create the tables in latin1?</p> <p>Anyway, changing to the right latin1 table in config.php did the trick. Weird that I didn't have the issue before the upgrade though.</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/upgraded-to-0831-special-characters-broken#post-13126 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 14:07:04 +0000 sambauers 13126@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>You should find out what character set your database is in and try to match it with the charset constant in the new config.php</p> <p>Copy all other config values over verbatim. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/upgraded-to-0831-special-characters-broken#post-13124 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 09:57:48 +0000 tdh 13124@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I did not overwrite or change config.php at all, since the upgrade instructions said I should keep it.
