*** NOTE *** This plugin is no longer recommended. Please use "Database Conversion Tool" (https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=2367) instead. *** NOTE *** This PHP script can be used to convert your MySQL database tables from latin1-to-UTF8 Instructions (also contained in the README in more detail): 0) BACKUP YOUR DATABASE!!! a) unzip and upload the utf8mb4-conversion.php file to your store's folder (same folder as nddbc.html file) b) use your browser to access the file ( http:// your_store_url/utf8mb4-conversion.php ) c) specify a db-prefix if all the tables start with a common prefix, then click the "Start converting" button at the bottom of the screen. The conversion will show current progress as it proceeds, and statistics upon completion. d) DELETE THE utf8mb4-conversion.php FILE FROM YOUR SERVER when finished. e) Update your Zen Cart configure.php settings to use 'utf8' for DB_CHARSET and english.php to set CHARSET to 'utf-8' ALERT: The latest version of this script can be found by clicking the Github Repository link next to this description. CAUTION: If your database is NOT in UTF8 format but contains UTF8 characters, you may end up with unpredictable results. ALWAYS MAKE A DATABASE BACKUP FIRST!!!! |
