Topic: language help

Hi folks,

I'm trying to post some words in Chinese on a punBB forums but it just shows up as question marks or jibberish.. Can anyone figure out why?
I already added an .htaccess file with the UTF8 instructions but it does not seem to work

Re: language help

You need to set PunBB to UTF-8 too wink

in lang_common.php, change the value of 'lang_encoding'
