 * It seems there are now issues with some characters when saving, like:
 * “êäöüçã” will be saved to “êäöüçã”
    “’” won’t be saved at all
 * I’m running WP 4.6.1 and Plugin 2.8

 * Hi,
 * I’m not able to replicate this issue at the moment on my test installs.
 * Have you had this working OK with a previous version of the plugin?
 * When you save the post, does it show the weird characters in the admin, or on
   the front end of the site, or both?
 * Thanks
 * Ben

 * this only happens in the admin with special characters
 * I downgraded to plugin version 2.6 which works fine again.
    maybe a problem with
   wptexturize() ?

 * I’ll compare the 2 versions to see what’s changed and see if I can narrow it 
   down…

 * removing **esc_attr()** and **htmlentities()** in functions **_add_subtitle_meta_box**
   and **_add_subtitle_field** worked for me:
 * change `value="' . esc_attr( htmlentities ( $value ) ) . '"`
 * to `value="' . $value . '"`

 * This should be fixed in version 2.9
