Special character codes in HTML editor

[Vodafone CZ]

Hello, when I edit source of forum post, some special characters are shown as HTML entities which makes the content in code really hard to read, for example ší shows as ší 😔 Is it possible to save them as standard characters? 🤔

Nevermind. I failed to see you mentioned you're using the Source button.

It's doing what it says, it lets you see the source HTML... 🙄

As mentioned, its showing you what you have asked for there (the source)

This is what i asked for

<a href="#" target="_blank" >Indikátor zapnutí svítí červeně</a>

And this is what i get

<a href="#" target="_blank">Indik&aacute;tor zapnut&iacute; sv&iacute;t&iacute; červeně</a>

But thank you both for useless "solution". Next time say something like "we dont care about other languages, english is the only option" or "we dont want to improve this feature".

Sorry to hear you are not happy with our answers here, however this is not a case of not caring here. This is a case of what you are seeing is actually correct. You are seeing the correct HTML Entities for those characters, which is the way in which they are added in HTML source. When you click the source button, you are viewing HTML source. To change them to what you mention there, would be to make them incorrect.

It has nothing to do with English, check out what & or < or > translates as 🙂
