Convert all language files from local encoding to utf-8 (you can use this script). Save the config file and remove install and contrib directories. Install the forum by the book - download archived files from and fill in installation form.
If you use phpMyAdmin here's how to create it:Īnd change the charset of an existing database:ĬREATE DATABASE `phpbb` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci ĪLTER DATABASE `test` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ciĪ good practice is to create separate database user with privileges only to this database. The database for forum installation should be with charset utf8 and collation for example utf8_general_ci. A possible fix is to convert the whole forum to utf-8 charset. This leads to shorter size of forum ranks and strange looking topics. Upload these folders in their entirety, retaining the file structure. Upload the uncompressed archive contents to your phpBB installation - only the install/ and vendor/ folders are required. This happens, because phpBB converts those symbols in HTML entities like &xxx. Go to the downloads page and download the latest update package listed there, matching your current version. Here are a few steps to install phpBB without having the problem regarding wrong display of forum topics containing non-latin symbols.
