UTF-8 in add-on
Permalink
Hello. I have a small problkem. I asked the developer, but I think they forgot me, so I am asking here but on a more general basis.
Where would the code for Charset UTF-8 be in an add-on? I have an addon that includes extras info field (as part of page properties). This text does not show the Norwegian characters I use properly. Everything else on the page is fine.
Not sure where to look for the fault. When using Inspect element in Chrome, I cannot find it.
In what file would the UTF-8 go? view.php?

Are you able to access your database through phpMyAdmin or something like that? It is most likely the encoding of the database table that is not set correctly that is breaking the characters, not the front end display.
Wouldn´t the whole site be affected then?
The database encoding can be set on a per-table basis, so it could be that just that table has the wrong encoding. It's an easy thing to check so a good place to start troubleshooting.
Seems fine to me. I saw that the column itself does not have the UTF-8 assigned to it, but it did not change when I tried assigning it (and saving).
The tablke has the UTF-8 assigned. See attached screengrabs
The column in question is plp_desc
