Hi,

We have upgraded our forum from 2.7.4 to 3.0.0 . It seems the database character set has been changed to utf8_unicode_ci. Now all the Turkish-specific characters seem to be broken Sad

For example, ı is displayed as ý and ş is displayed as þ . The problematic characters are:

ş Ş ı İ ğ Ğ

Topic titles, and post contents have been affected differently. That may be because some posters used computers with different charsets for posting. Some post contents are displayed correctly when I choose ISO-8859-9 as character set in my browser, others are not. New posts from UTF-8 computers like my Ubuntu don't seem to be affected, and the characters in this post are displayed correctly as well, but our old content is not.

What can we do to solve the problem? Is there a way to replace ALL instances of some characters in the WHOLE content of the forum?
