   Locate the bb-config.php file it might be in your wordpress folder or bbpress and find the define( 'BB_LANG'

   You need a FTP program, same way you got the wordpress and bbpress on the server the first time. I would say look at your wp-config.php file and look for line that says define ('WPLANG', 'XX'); Whatever the XX is is what you need to put in your bb-config.php file. define( 'BB_LANG', 'XX' );

   Hi Gibby,

   Your best bet would be to take this over to the BuddyPress folks.
   The bbPress you see inside BuddyPress is actually a hack/modified version of the core (a very very good one mind you); but really you'll have more chance of getting a good answer other there.

   Good Luck,
   Kev

   Check the tables of your database. Maybe the bbPress tables are in latin1. On the file bb-config.php tell me what is written at this line:

   /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
   define( 'BBDB_CHARSET', 'utf8' );

   it must be utf8.

    Open up phpmyadmin and make sure that the collation of tables is utf8_unicode_ci.
