UTF-8 Support for Names in the "Manage Stamped Files" section

[Ozan]

Hi,

I’m very pleased with this great plug-in and want to thank you again!

In the new upgrade I saw that “automatic bulk delete” option is added and which is fantastic, too.

What I would like to request as a feature is the customer names in the “Manage Stamped Files” section doesn’t have utf-8 support and the names appear ugly like this:

Is there any chance to add utf-8 support for that section, too?

Thanks a lot.

That should already be in UTF-8. Can you go into PHPMyAdmin and check the charset value of that database table?

In the table it shows “latin1_swedish_ci”, not utf-8.

Both the wordpress and plugin’s are default installations.

Should it be using utf-8 as default?

In the plugin settings, UTF-8 is also checked.

The “default” charset for the WordPress database creation should’ve been UTF-8:

“Beginning with Version 2.2, both the database character set and the collation can be defined in the wp-config.php file. Setting the DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE values in wp-config.php causes WordPress to create the database with the appropriate charset settings. The default is UTF8, the standard charset for modern data which supports all internet-friendly languages.”

You should be able to change that database table formatting to UTF-8 using PHPMyAdmin also. So try that and then any new entries should be good.
