Cirilics not dispaying properly

Permalink
Hi,

i have a problem with the Russian (cirilics) writing.

When i add the writing it gets messed up like Главная.

Can someone please help me with this.

My Database is encoded with utf_8, utf8_general_ci

Thanks in advance

Regards,
Ermin

You can try looking here and see if you can find a solution. One solution came from running a script, though I'm unsure if it'd work for you:

Hi,

thanks fot the reply.

I have tried that and it is not working for me. The cirilics writing is working in edit mode but at the front-end it doesn't.

At the database all the tables are set to utf8_general_ci. Do you think if i change it to utf8_unicode.ci that it would work?

Thanks

Yes, try toggling utf8_unicode_ci in your mysql settings if it isn't already. I think a client faced a similar problem and that usually takes care of it.

Also, taking a peek at the "default_charset" value your php.ini file can clue you in. That value I think should be set to "utf-8"
