 * On my slovak website, the “»” character in sidebar is displayed incorrectly as“
   »”
    I suspect this is encoding error, therefore I suggest to escape all unicode
   characters in unicode (and html)
 * replace
 *     ```
       .widget-content ul li:before {
       	content: "»";
       ```
   
 * with
 *     ```
       .widget-content ul li:before {
       	content: "\00bb";
       ```
