Known issue - characters in posts

Hi all,

There is a known issue with the display of some special characters (accents, symbols) in posts at the moment.

This is due to a database encoding issue, which I am working to resolve.

Is it all to do with UTF8 and how data is captured and displayed by devices? That is limit of my knowledge. Have seen people at work talking about it.

As above, this is something I am working to resolve. It does mean working with the whole site database so I am testing with a subset of the live data first.

Right. I can type a pound ££ and get them reliably, it's older posts that seem to have become corrupted? And I don't think it's just my machine if others are seeing this too.

It is older posts which have a non UTF-8 encoding.
