ehku Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 After upgrading from 3.4.7 to 4.0 RC3, Unicode topic titles of my forum are not displayed correctly: I remember that somebody already experienced this problem and posted a question on this forum but could not find the post. Any ideas to fix this please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Jake Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I would be also interested how to fix this.Just upgraded my test install from 3.4.7 to 4.0 RC3 and i'm having exactly same problem.Finnish language forums so i'm only missing Ä and Ö in all posts, topic titles and descriptions.Edit: Noticed that user group names are messed up. I have "Users" user group modified to Finnish "Käyttäjät" name and it's showing incorrectly also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ehku Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 This is actually a bug of IPS UTF8 Database Converter (by @Matt ?). I tried converting my database on 3.4.7 to UTF-8 using the latest version of the converter, and got the same problem. There's nothing to do with 4.0.

Mr.Jake Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Did they also fix the converter? Cos i used the converter to mess up my database. Or does the 4.0 Upgrade convert it again during upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Jake Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 RC4 didn't fix the issue.Made new test install of my live board (Works well and shows all ÄÄÄ and ÖÖÖ correctly) and then upgraded it to 4.0 RC4 and same thing happens again.If i create topic or anything on that RC4 all ÄÄÄ and ÖÖÖ shows correctly. It's just the upgrade process from 3.4.7 to 4.0 what doesn't work and messes up the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octavian Dima Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hello,When you start upgrade from 3.4.x to 4.x it will ask you about database type, utf8mb4_unicode_ci and another one (I can't remember the name). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
