Hi Daniel,

After the installation I see sometimes strange letters appearing in the articles. I don't know what this means. I have attached an images. You can see in the circles what I mean.

Hope you know how to solve the problem. Thanking you in advance for your help.

Best wishes,

Natasja

This is the article right? NOt the comments???

As you know I do support for the comment system, not for the whole joomla system :)

Anyway - go to phpmyadmin and look at the jos_content folders - are their collation utf8_general_ci - also open the table and look at the fields and the collation for those fields. Everything should be utf8 otherwise you get strange characters with letters that are outside of the latin alphabet.

Hi Daniel,

Okay thanks. I thought it had to do with your comment system as it appears after the installation. I'll check your suggestion.

Best wishes,
Natasja
