带有撇号问题的 Wordpress 字符编码

Question

I am getting strange character encoding on my Wordpress website when I use apostrophes. Every single page and post where I use apostrophes outputs things like the following:

• isnât
• ÃÂ
• Readyâ
• â

I have contacted my hosting who were less than useful but told me that “the database seems to be correctly set to utf8mb4 encoding”

I have checked wp-config and it also says utf8, view source on the page says utf8 also.

I've tried commenting out:

//define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
//define('DB_COLLATE', '');

Adding “-“ in to match view source output

//define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf-8"');

I've changed typography settings to use Ariel with no joy. In the page editor, there are no indications of the weird characters, everything looks fine. It's just the output on the page?

Not sure where else to turn now :-(

Answer 1

i think that's because of your function file, can you try with default theme

and this way you can fix previous errors

UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = REPLACE(post_content, '“', '“');
