Hello,

I'm using the english version of the forum but I'd like my users to have the option to write messages in either Greek or English.

I changed the charset in the English.lng file as well as in main template to UTF-8 but this doesn't seem to work. Whenever someone tries to post something in Greek the forum converts the Greek text to some weird numbers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S - seems like this forum can display Greek properly. Am I missing something? I'm using version Platinum 8.1 BETA

I don't believe I use the charset.  No, I don't.  Remove the charset attribute from the header of your template.  This may solve it.  It may open up a new can of worms though, but I doubt it (as I don't use it here).


I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

Continue to enjoy it and come back periodically for updates.    Make a translation to greek if you want.
