    Hello,

    I bought eStore yesterday and i use it in French.

    I have problems with special characters.

    If I use an accent in a text field, this one is immediatly changed after saving.

    Example: “Méthode” become “Méthode”. If I save again without changing anything, it becomes “MÃ?©thode” etc…

    Accent also in the file languages/fr.php are not displayed correctly in wordpress.

    Example: “Quantité” become “Quantit�”. By the way, accent I use in wordpress pages are shown correctly.

    How can I fix this problem ?

    Best regards

    Dimitri

    I forgot to say that wordpress is configured to work with UTF-8 character coding.

    @lekiend, I having sent an updated version of the plugin which should fix the accent issue. Also, update your PayPal profile to use UTF-8 character for IPN:

    I have the same problem in the mails sent to buyer and to admin

    if there is an accented character in {product_details} field.

    It’s not displayed correctly.

    “Une pensée” is displayed as “Une pens�e”

    not working if encoding é with é

    “Une pensée” is displayed as “Une pensée”

    So, what to do ?

    sorry, I must try to block the rendering with code tag

    Code:
    “Une pensée” is displayed as “Une pensée”

    I put the line twice with underscore to be sure to block the é rendering

    Code:
    “Une pens&_eacute;e” is displayed as “Une pens&_eacute;e”
