Today i have started my testing for convertion to Swedish UTF-8.
Is there any step by step instruction how this should be made, it seems to me a lot of things can (and usually) go wrong...
Anyway.
Started by dowlooading language pack and installing it.
It went great.
Then i changed language in forum from Swedish to Swedish UTF-8.
It went great (but i noticed i hade permission for members to shoose language)
I testad to write a post in the forum, and it worked!
Then i checked my settings for language in my profile, and wierdly enough, it was set to English (but i see forum in Swedish).
Well, i changed to Swedish, just to try, and now things get really crazy.
åäö suddenly dissapears, and all my posts are empty, exept for links, bold words and other "special" signs.
Now i have replaced the backup of the database, and went back to Swedish language in forum, but åäö are still missing. (Post are back though)
Do i need to replace the files from bacjup to restore my swedish signs åäö?
For a change to UTF-8, do i need to start with the database convertion and then replace the language in the forum?
Fourm is
www.diskussionsforum.se with wery few posts and topics.
No hurry to get it up and running properly, but anyway, it would be nice with some sort of "how to do" when it comes to converting to UTF8
Is there anyone that haw done this with no large issues produced?
