German and other languages special charateres howto - 16-11-2005, 09:54 AM

Hallo zusammen

Ich versuchs einfach einmal auf Deutsch da mein English nicht sehr gut ist.
Ich habe sehr grosse Probeleme um meine Texte (Umlaute) richtig
anzeigen zu lassen und der Support kann auch nicht wirklich helfen.

Hat jemand erfahrung darin.

Bin froh um jeden Tipp.

Hallo,

für die deutschen Umlaute ist es wichtig das man UTF-8 abschaltet, und zwar an 3 verschiedenen Stellen:

1) Admin CP > Languages > Manage Languages > Edit
2) Admin CP > Languages > Manage Phrases > "charset" phrase
3) locale/en-us/en-us.php file, Suche nach 'charset' => 'UTF-8'

an den erwähnten Stellen sollte man UTF-8 gegen ISO-8859-1 austauschen, ich hab das gemacht und seit dem keine Probleme mehr mit Umlauten.

ACHTUNG: 3.) geht nur bei der owned-variante

Es gibt dann noch ein paar kleinere Probleme die aber mit dem Build 026 behoben werden, das solltest du also nach möglichkeit einen Update machen.

Umlaute im Chat - 05-12-2005, 09:43 PM

Hi!

Ich habe gelesen, dass Umlaute in Chats problematisch sein sollen.
@adolleschal:
Funktioniert das bei Dir mit Deinen Modifikationen oder nutzt Du nur ESupport ohne Chat?

Beste Grüße

Frank

Hi!

Ich habe das alles soweit geändert dennoch zeigt er mir kryptische Zeichen an...
Egal ob ich nu ISO 8859-1 oder 8859-15 nehme...
Wenn ich aber hergehe und in den Phrases Html-Umlaute verwende werden sie einwandfrei angezeigt...


Hat noch jemand das Problem?

Ich denke die Punkte muss ich nicht nochmal in Deutsch übersetzen ...

We have "umlauts" displayed properly now.

1. Make sure mysql is using charset "latin1" (v4.1)

2. Make sure the php.ini is using charset "iso-8859-1".

3. Make sure you edit the <supportsuite>/locale/en-us.php
and change all first 3 "UTF-8" to "iso-8859-1".

4. Go to the Admin CP and check the language phrases.
Look for "UTF-8" and change to "iso-8859-1" (approx.
on page 7,25,65).

5. Stop/start all involved services (mysql/apache/apache2).

I might write a proper howto. Just want to leave a short note here.

Cheers,

Marvin (3.00.33 CVS)

P.S. Man erzeilt auch andere Ergebnisse, sobald man im Browser! auch die "Ansicht > Charset" ändert. Also bei uns ist ISO-8859-1 standard.

just to push this up again :-)

is it still true that the best thing one can do is to change from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 at the mentioned paces?

I've seen that UTF 8 does work, the only problem is the stuuf already in the database. Is there any way to change the content of the database?

Of course you can change the database stuff, if you have access to it.

I do have the following problem: When I search for a contact named "Björn whatever" Kayako won't find him - in the Database it says "Björn whatever".. But if I change the "ö" to "ö" then it shows that damn square we all know

I also set the encoding to ISO from UTF, but it's not working. The point is, I think, that the stuff is not written to the DB correctly.

What shall I do?

Hi,

In your search you will have to type "Bj*rn" . Use a "*" to substitute the special character.

Generally the search in Support suite does suck a lot. I never really find what I need and using the "Advanced Search" is not better either.
