    How to fix utf8 problem of Pligg 1.00 RC2 ?

    The utf-8 characters in the titels of the posts do not work. (only in the titels!) I know the problem is already reported but I really need to get fixed that problem soon. If I knew how to fix it myself I would do it.

    How can I fix that. Which files need to be modified?

    I've just installed the latest SVN but now it's worse.

    Before I had only with the titles of the posts a problem. The posts itself were okay.

    Now I have still with the titles a problem but also with the posts.

    Just made a reinstallation of Pligg 1.00 RC2 to solve the issue with the posts.

    Main problem is that the users of my site do not expect that the UMLAUT only work with the posts but that they do not work with the titles. Please have a look at the attached picture to see my problem... (post and tags are okay, title is not okay)

    To avoid that, you need to have "AddDefaultCharset UTF-8" line in your .htaccess file. You can use htaccess.default from SVN.
    Also, after you install latest SVN version, you need to run /upgrade/upgrade.php to update your mysql database.

    Many thanks for your explanation. I was able to solve the problem.

    I found another bug. I followed the instructions of brdless. With this also the UMLAUTS (ä, ö, ü) in the Titel are correct if you post a story the first time.

    But if the admin corrects something in the titel after a text has been posted I get again the old problem.

    It shows ö instead of ö.

    Maybe there is something else which need to be modified.
