Hi,

I have already sent you Sergey a e-mail regarding this and I haven't received any response so I wasn't sure you received it.

But here's my problem:

I'm moving my site from one server to another. I have exported the database from the old server and imported it to the new server, transfered all the files to the new server and the site is up and running. But the problem is that I had translated most of the games description on the old server to my language, and that worked perfectly. I also upgraded to the latest version on the new server. But now on the new server my language characters show up as a question mark and such. Any solution to this?

This must be some kind of encoding problem in my opinion, not sure tho.

I have added a screenshot of this.

Contact me via davidelvar@gmail.com if you need more information.

Regards,
David

Most likely the encoding has been ruined during export/import. Please make sure the Collation (Character sets) in both databases are the same (you can check them using phpmyadmin, see tab "Operations" when a database is selected), and if they are not, change the new DB's charset to the one used in the old DB.
