    Hi. I want to use diacritical marks, specifically Ā and ā on my WordPress website. When I use these diacritics they initially appear okay but when I save and publish they turn into question marks (so I assume WordPress doesn’t recognise these fonts). Does anyone know how I can fix? Thanks!!

    Hi,

    In your wp-config.php, do you have the following?

    /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');

/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');

    Thanks schulte. I shall try that once I can get access to my cpanel (which for some reason won’t accept my password right now!).

    Hi schulte. My wp-config.php file has:

    /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
    define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
    //define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘latin1’);

    /** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
    define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);

    If you examine the structure of all your tables, what does it list for collation?
