This may not be a bug, but it's a problem for me.

I've converted my board to utf-8 instead of iso-8859-1 because I have members that post Greek and Hebrew text. This is fine until I install a new version, when it reverts back to iso-8859-1.

I read somewhere that the setting to be changed is the CHARSET field in generic.php language file.

Is there some solution (or a better place to make that change)? Or do I just have to remember to change it back every time?

Thanks.

I requested (a while ago) that it (and several other little variables) be moved to the config file vs sitting in a language file; so they aren't removed when we upgrade.

When we do 8.0, this (along with other settings) will be moved into the database.

imo, the only settings should be where to find the DB and how.. then everything else it DB based smile
