SMF Links and SMF Articles character set problem
(1/2) > >>
oskars:
Hello! I am using SMF 2.0 RC5 with UTF-8 language character set. (languages used latvian and russian). I an using also language files to change interface and everything works Ok, including SMF inself, Simple portal and other mods. The problem is with SMF Links and SMF Articles, which turns most of non-Latin characters to ? or some smily type. As soon as I enter latvian characters like ēūīāšģķļžčņ or russian characters, for instance, Цитата от 13 Июня 2006, after submission these are no the same any more. The problem is with all the texts - category, topic, article text, link name e.t.c.
These mods are cool, but as these characters are crippled, there is no use in languages having specific characters. Please check it.
SMFHacks:
Try changing the table type for the tables to utf8
oskars:
Thanks for instant replay. Must admit, that I am no expert in MySQL and table management. I using myadmin to do some things with it. So I do not fully understand which of the parameters should I change:
Field name Data type Type width Type options Case insensitive Case sensitive Allow nulls? Yes No Default value Don't change NULL Value Part of primary key Yes No
As I understand, the main thing is type - but this is the same for most of tables - tinytext, text, longtext (not mentioning anything about character set used).
SMFHacks:
It should be under Operations if you are using phpmyadmin you have to get inside the smf_links and smf_articles tables.
hydrozagadka:
I operate on files, via Programmers Notepad, and I'm not sure where I should find these "tables" to change. I have the same problem with characters (utf-8 set) with SMF Articles, as Oskars earlier.
