Hello, I have a problem with font. I don't know if is this problem only in my language (Czech), but letters that English does not have, I see wrong. On the next picture you can see my problem. Special characters are wrong. The problem emerged after the "failure" of boincstats.
It has to do with recent data base changes, and somehow UTF8 was no longer UTF8, it happened with German as well.
I asked the same in the translator forum here, and got this answer from Willy:
The site and the database are both UTF8. However, moving text to another table or, like I did with the recovery, moving the table to another server, breaks the encoding somehow. Have to make sure what's the problem to prevent doing work for nothing.
and
The table for the signatures has been an UTF-8 table since the beginning. I'm now starting to think that MySQL has a serious problem with UTF-8 encoding when moving data between tables or when recovering UTF-8 data from backups.
As for the texts, I probably write a quick and dirty page that shows a text twice and let the translator then choose which one is correct. I tried to automate it but I can find no way for either MySQL or PHP to detect which of the two versions is correct .
He just programmed this small tool to help us translators find the affected sentences and change them, I did so for German, but I can't for any other language.
