Title: UTF-8 errors in subs-post
Post by: Dan_ on March 09, 2021, 10:17:57 AM
I am still having errors though not numbering in the thousands as before. 

It seems to have something to do with the language files and out going mail as per what I could search support threads for.  I have no clue on what to do.
I would like to get it down to zero errors except for missed passwords...  See attached, and thanks in advance.

Thank you very much!  I applied the hack and emptied the SMF error log.  Fingers Crossed...
Shouldn't this be in a patch whether the powers that be can reproduce the error or not..?
One thing I did notice when I looked at "languages" in admin menu was That I have 3 in there but the UTF-8 is default.  The regular English has 2 users marked, and I had "let users select language" ticked in the check box. 

The other language was Spanish with no users marked as using.
I took the tic out of the check box to allow user selection.
Should I get rid of the other 2 language files..?

Thanks again!

If your forum was converted to utf8, yes, remove any non-utf8 languages.
