Hello Guys,

This night, my wordpress automatically updated to 4.6.1.
It created a problem with all special characters which are now “�”.

Can you help me with this ?

Thanks a lot.

Hey there,

Can you give us the page’s where Cornerstone doesn’t work? Also, please disable WPML so we’ll know if this is an issue with Cornerstone. If that is not possible, please copy your site over to a development server so we could test things without affecting your live site.

Thanks.

Hello there,

I tried something by myself to understand where the problem came from.
And to be honest i still don’t know but maybe this could help:

I made a ftp backup from 3 days ago on my registrar with WPML desactivated.
So i went back to the previous version of WordPress (before 4.6.1).
I updated all plugins and Xtheme.
I update WordPress to 4.6.1 and i have my text problem again.
Now, Kornerstone is not working on any page. WMPL still off.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Sorry, i forgot the clue part.

When i restore the website to the previous version of wordpress, the problem disappears.
It comes back when i update to 6.4.1, and WPML was off all long.

Hi There,

Please restore your website and before you update it download and keep the wp-config.php. Now after a successful update of WordPress, restore the wp-config.php that you keep.

And please update your MYSQL version to 5.6. WordPress Requirements

Let us know how it goes.

Cheers!

Hello guys,

I solved the problem.
When WordPress updated, the wp-config.php goes from utf8 to utf8-mb4 and my databased stayed on utf8.
I needed to change both of them on the same value and it’s now working.

Thanks for your help !
