 * Hi,
 * I am getting a lot of 404 errors on my imported posts. Most of these errors are
   caused by certain html characters in the titles that are also imported. Example:
   [http://www.nigeriannation.com/2015-jonathan-pleads-for-patience-%e2%80%a2group-to-deposit-n19-5m-for-nomination-form/](http://www.nigeriannation.com/2015-jonathan-pleads-for-patience-%e2%80%a2group-to-deposit-n19-5m-for-nomination-form/)
 * How do I fix this? Thanks.
