Joomla 3.x - Weird signs and symbols

Question

Recently moved upgraded site to different directory and updated database tables with live site tables. The site was displaying correctly on test environment, but after migration some weird characters started showing on admin section. Please check screenshot. Anyone have any solutions to this?! tried switching to Hathor and it's also missing icons. Looked at media > jui and even re-uploaded the files, but nothing.

Answer 1

So the issue was caused by htaccess. Was rewriting webfonts to lowercase thus causing this issue.

Answer 2

I had the exact same problems as shown in the image above. Turned out, I had unchecked "Allow pages to use their own fonts" in the browser's font setup.

Answer 3

I had the same problem. The htaccess file was not the htaccess suggested by Joomla so I changed it to the one that comes with Joomla and that fixed the problem.
