  1. I just went back to the way it was for now. Thanks for your help.
  2. Thanks.... The main thing I'm trying to figure out is how to change those values in the database from latin1_swedish_ci to utf8_unicode_ci
  3. I'm still confused--would putting the right query/command in the config.php file change the database to collate using utf8? How, in general, am I supposed to change THESE entries: To utf8_unicode_ci?
  4. I'm using phpBB3. I found some of the settings I had seen people talk about on the forum in my config.php file, but when I put mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'"); into it, it puts a whole bunch of error messages on the forum at the top of the screen when I go to it.... When I make it: mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'", $conn); it puts THIS at the top of the screen when I go to my forum....
  5. I have a forum in which I'm tired of people complaining to me about getting php errors when they type certain characters. I tried really hard to make changes so it wouldn't return the error, and now I can preview messages just fine, but I can't actually post anything at all now. phpMyAdmin - 2.11.9.5 I've been told by people that I need to type mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'"); as a query. I assume that THIS would be the place where I would type a query: But when I do, I get: When I did some searching on this forum about utf8, I saw lines and lines and lines of "query code" and was overwhelmed to the point of shaking. Initially I had went through and individually changed latin1_swedish_ci to utf8_unicode_ci... But then when I went to check the main page, it showed this: And I was unable to find any way to change those entries from latin1_swedish_ci to utf8_unicode_ci. Then someone told me about mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'"); Which, as I stated earlier, doesn't work, it returns an error message. Is there some easy way to change this to utf8, or is it a long process that I should probably look into paying someone to make changes to my forum?
