    Hi,

    I have installed quickstart package for a news website on 29 May 2015 for my client

    I have tried many of your templates to resolve the issue, but no one template is supporting unicode

    http://nbsmediagroup.com/index.php
    Main Menu : one navigation is coming like this ??? ???? ????

    If we don’t installl your quick start and just install the fresh joomla installation with joomla default template, then it is support unicode.

    My prob. still not resolved by JA Team, Seems I have to switch another template provider.

    Thanks
    Ravi Kishore

    It appears you are using the latin1_swedish_ci collation in the database. This is great for most European languages but some, such as greek do not display well with this. In addition, some eastern alphabets cause the ??? ???? stuff to appear. It is always going to be a difficult choice which collation to use for sample data as so many sites use different languages. All is not lost though as there are many ways of changing it. You could for instance edit the sql sample data files before install and edit the collation there. When you go through the install procedure it will setup your db’s with your selected collation. Another method and probably the simplest is to use Akeeba Tools – http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extension/access-a-security/site-security/admin-tools . You can install this to your Joomla site then set collation to whatever suits the languages you use best.
