Hi,

Now that the templates are done and the entries posted,
what are the steps to migrate from ISO to UTF-8 encoding ?

Sorry, you’re going to have to be a lot more specific about what you’re talking about. Migrate what?

Maybe “migrate” is not the proper term.
pMachine is distributed with a default iso-8859-1 charset.
I want an UTF-8 charset for both weblogs and CP, but it’s not indicated how to.
There are troubles with entries that have been encoded in iso-8859-1 and are displayed in an UTF-8 page.

You can specify whatever character set you want in the <meta> tag on your regular PHP pages (weblog.php, comments.php, etc).

If you want to change the encoding for the Control Panel pages, you can do so by editing pm/cp/global.vis.cp.php. There are two places the HTML <head> is written so you’d need to specify the <meta> tag there.
