# Unicode support?

 * Hi
    My site is in Persian. I won’t get any results until I lower the threshold
   to 1, and the results are all in the same category (the result thresold is just
   1). I used this plugin on 3 sites of mine and the results are all the same. I
   think that YARPP doesn’t see posts that use unicode (UTF-8 in my case) and btw
   just find the related posts by category. I hadn’t any problem with YARPP nearly
   6 months ago (wordpress version was below 3 and I can’t remember the version 
   of YARPP).
 * Any help would be really appreciated.

 * Sorry to hear that. YARPP has been extensively tested to work with unicode encoded
   blogs, so I don’t think that would be an issue.
 * If you have your “relatedness” settings set to consider categories or tags, do
   those work? Does your site not use a lot of categories or tags?

 * Thank you for your reply. I’ve changed “relatedness” in every way possible. What
   I get from it is that only category affects the “relatedness”. One other thing
   is that the result threshold only shows 1. And as I said, I had this plugin work
   perfect in nearly 6 months ago. Btw, the number of categories and tags are normal.
 * Hadn’t my site be entirely in Persian, I’d gladly provide you with link and everything.
 * Anyway, your help would be really great. Could it be my incorrect installation?(
   I’ve only copied the yarpp-templates to the theme directory.

 * If you can get to the options screen, your install is working fine. I would wait
   to add more content and see if related posts show up over time. Thanks.
