    Character Set

    Hello!

    How can i set my character set in mysql databases of new joomla installations to be automatically set in utf8_general_ci instead of the current latin1_swedish_ci that doesnt support my language?

    Thank you in advance!

    Re: Character Set

    i found it myself,
    you have to create a new installation at your local phpmyadmin in utf_general_ci.
    Then you extract the new database keeping structure and the old database (the one from the site) only keeping the data from it.
    Then erase the site's database from my control panel and insert first structure database and then data to it.
    You have a new database with all the data and in utf_general_ci!
