ok, shouldn't have to do this, but try this fix in mod_smf_recenttopics.php(in modules/):

on or around line 275 find this code

Code:

$subject_chars = str_replace('&', '&', $post['subject']);
$subject_chars = substr($subject_chars, 0, $int_num_char);
$subject_chars = str_replace('&', '&', $subject_chars);
echo $subject_chars;

replace with

Code:

//$subject_chars = str_replace('&', '&', $post['subject']);
//$subject_chars = substr($subject_chars, 0, $int_num_char);
//$subject_chars = str_replace('&', '&', $subject_chars);
//echo $subject_chars;
echo substr(html_entity_decode($post['subject']), 0, $int_num_char);

And then on or around line 284 find this code

Code:

echo $post['subject'];

and replace with

Code:

//echo $post['subject'];
echo html_entity_decode($post['subject']);

Let me know if that solves the problem.

Yes, it does solve the issue Wink

will that make it to whenever a new version of the module is released?

Thanks,
NiCo

Any suggestions?

Same problem here with the update version of the module.. The changes you suggest are in place and still it doesnt show correct UTF-8 characters

I should say that both db and website are in utf8. It just shows question marks!!!!

Edit:
Forgot to mention the language is greek. The rest of the site is working perfect.

Because the erroneus characters appeared from the discussbot i also made a new post manually. The same result!

I have that problem too and that code doesn't solve utf-8 characters.

My site is in utf-8 completely, too.

However in previous version of my site i used mambo and orstio's software and that was solved with this hard-coding:

mysql_select_db($mosConfig_db);
mysql_query( "SET CHARSET 'utf8'" );
$sql = "SELECT id FROM ".$mosConfig_dbprefix."menu WHERE link='index.php?option=com_smf'";

SET CHARSET is the key to the solution. But where to put it?

I'm having the same problem using German characters and would be happy if someomne could solve this problem. Characters like Ä Ü Ö etc. are not getting displayed properly.
