So is [admin]/includes/configure.php
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); // 'utf8' or 'latin1' are most common
This is in my includes/languages/english.php I use english because this is a US website, but it just so happens that I have asian shoppers. All products and templates are in english.
// charset for web pages and emails
define('CHARSET', 'utf-8');
Should there be other things I should be looking for?
Since the issue is in transferring information to/from the database and that information needs to be utf8mb4, change both instances of DB_CHARSET in the configure.php files to utf8mb4 as:
Code:
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8mb4');
That should resolve the issue.
