Hi, if I wanted to change the default charset of vBulletin (charset=ISO-8859-1) to unicode (UTF-8), which file(s) do I need to change?

Thanks.

Seems I am missing where you can actually set it, though if you will edit your headinclude template, you will see $stylevar[charset], simply replace that with your desired setting.

Yeah, I notice that, too. There must be a place where you just change the setting once and I will change all the pages/files throughout. I guess I am just a little bit lazy editing all of them.

Thanks though

No problem, I too thought there was an option, though I've still yet to find it.

Ah, thanks Steve - I needed to know this as well. I knew there was somewhere that allowed the change, it seems I was simply overlooking the last place to look :).
