Adding support for other languages

hello,
I'm using your add-on on my wbce system, and want to ask how  i add support using other languages like hebrew,
when i write every where, only at OneForAll add-on i got only ???? (question marks)
i don't know much php or javascripts so i don't know how to deal with it.

i would happy if someone can help me with that.
other parts on wbce deal fine with hebrew..

thanks!

Re: Adding support for other languages

Does this problem appear in the backend or in the frontend of your website?
At settings > show advanced settings > charset, which charset is selected?

Re: Adding support for other languages

I see the problem - I've tested it with some hebrew characters, but they're indeed transformed to question marks. But they're not accepted in other modules as well (when I'm trying to create a new page with a hebrew title, there appears a warning "please enter a title", and in wysiwyg the characters are completely erased). Changing the charset in the settings to hebrew, even changing the data base / table charset does not help either.
I have no idea or solution for this issue, I'm sorry.

Re: Adding support for other languages

I can reproduce this problem and think I found the reason for this behavior:
If in the database the collation is "latin1_xxxxx" then the text will be saved as  "??????" if I change it to "utf8_unicode_ci" the hebrew characters are saved correctly.

That would also explain why e.g. WYSIWYG pages works correct and some modules don't.

! It's not enough to change the collation for the affected table, the collation must also changed for the paticular fields !

@florian:
could you please check and/or confirm this observation?

Re: Adding support for other languages

You're right, that does the trick.

@eidoil32: Use a database editor like PhpMyAdmin or Adminer to switch the collation of the whole database and the mod_oneforall_...-fields to utf8_unicode_ci to solve the issue.
