[Tikiwiki-users] fix-utf8 errors in tables

[Marko R. <mr...@ne...>]

Hi folks,

the problem with our migration seems to be that our page data are not
in UTF-8.

We have discovered the "Fix UTF-8 errors" feature in the "System Admin
menu." After running the script on the field "data" of "tiki_pages" we
do indeed get different glyphs for German Umlauts. The problem is,
they're still wrong.

Is anyone working with this feature and/or has tested it on German
content? We are thinking, as a last resort, to pipe the MySQL dump
through a Perl script that replaces German ISO Umlauts with their
UTF-8 equivalent. Does anyone have a conversion table that matches the
two-byte UTF-8 Umlauts to their one-byte equivalents?

Best regards,

Marko
