 * to rule out any plugin/theme-specific issue, try:
    – deactivating ALL (yes all)
   plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can
   interfere). If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find
   the problematic plugin(s). – If that does not resolve the issue, try switching
   to the unedited default Twenty Fifteen theme for a moment using the WP dashboard
   to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

 * When I done that, I find nothing then I decided to switch to 12-15 theme and 
   created a new page and it still showing “?” on 1 line
 * is it something wrong with wordpress itself or plugins?

 * > is it something wrong with wordpress itself or plugins
 * – nothing wrong with WordPress core.
 * – Have you tried deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily to see if this
   resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this works, re-activate
   them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).
 * – If that does not resolve the issue, **With all plugins still deactivated**,
   try switching to the unedited default Twenty Fifteen theme for a moment using
   the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue

 * Your current WP version is 4.2.2. What version did you upgrade from?
 *  Also, if you look at your html source, what do you see in the meta values of
   the header ?

 * In addition, also check wp-config.php file for this line :
 *     ```
       /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
       define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
       ```
   
 * Also, you can chck the source of your page in your browser

 * My VPS provider says utf8 is enabled
 * I checked wp-config, its there.
 * I just re-checked the wordpress theme 12-15 and I do see it has utf8 meta tag
   in it
 * Any ideas now?
