Problem Description:
Hello,
for some time now, when some users post, their apostrophys are replaced with "’". Any idea why and how to fix this?

Thx.

Adding: It only seems to happen when they copy their posts over from Word.

Please open template.php, and search for this:

ISO-8859-1

Change it to:

UTF-8

Then try SMF instead, it should work there.

Note: you will have to re-post the information.

I'm trying it on a test install, still have some issues, when they are sorted I will!

QuoteNote: you will have to re-post the information.

??? Oh, do you mean, it won't fix the posts that have been made prior to the switch?
