Charset Problems with uploading a language from .xml file

[Ori]

Hello,

I try to upload a new language (in addition to the english one) and have Problems with the Charset.

I also set the MySQL charset in includes/config.php file by uncommenting this line:
// $config['Mysqli']['charset'] = 'my charset';

But, it seems to me that this change of setting at the config.php file doesn't took part about importing from the ADMINCP.

It seems like all the files that i will import from the ADMINCP will be injected to the MYSQL database with the default charset of the vB board ignorance the change i set at the config.php file.

In simple php code, with uncomplicated line i set the charset of the data that injected to my MYSQL database:
mysql_query("SET NAMES ' *my language* '");

But here, at the data that imported by the ADMINCP i d'ont know how to set a NAMES for my queries.

How can I solve this problem ?

Thanks.

Importing language files will always use ISO-8859-1. It's hardcoded.

What are you using? UTF8? Then try this:


Open the XML file in UltraEdit
File -> Conversions -> UNICODE/ASCII/UTF-8 to UTF-8 (ASCII Editing)
Do NOT change the line that says encoding="ISO-8859-1"
Save it and try to import it again
Change the language setting to UTF8

no UTF8,

the names in the database needs to be in hebrew,
and the page incoding is windows-1255
