    Default Character Set Issue (Norwegian)

    I have another question. I use Norwegian zen cart, and special characters from the Norwegian alphabet is misspelled under product listing: Saturday is wrong: lørdag , should be Lørdag. Example: Lagt til: lørdag 10 oktober, 2015. character: ø should be: Ø.

    What is your database collation
    You can change it to utf-8 if it is not set to this with this

    My guess would be that this is a charset issue - check the charset you are using in your configure.php files and in includes/languages/norwegian.php.

    ... and make sure that the DB_CHARSET that you've specified in your /includes/configure.php and /YOUR_ADMIN/includes/configure.php matches the collation used by your actual database!

    It is possible to do it manually from PhpMyAdmin?

    How can I see which collation the database is? (from PHPMyAdmin)
