    Firstly read this:

    http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?...8859-1-to-utf8

    If you choose to proceed and make the file changes (on not makes them as the case may be) you will also need
    https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1280 to convert the database.

    Ensure you have backups before doing anything.

    Cheers

    Why my <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1> is still set as "iso-8859-1" after I downloaded MySQL charset converter (beta) to convert from latin1-to-UTF8 ?

    ... because you didn't follow the instructions here: http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?...8859-1-to-utf8 to edit your language files.

    Do you mean /admin/includes/languages/english.php and non-admin /includes/languages/english.php?

    I modified these two. I don't quite understand what does it mean by "and all other language_name.php files in that folder".....

    I figured it! It should be non-admin /includes/languages/english.php in my own folder.
