Hi jurridk,

It seems that you are trying to creat the multiligual site or setting non-English as a default language. That is why the sub-title of Onepage modules got strange character. In this case, you can try to create a Content Language in Extensions >> Language Managers, for the current default language.

Hi jurridk,

I have 2 other suggestions for you in this case:

1. You can try to open templatesja_onepagetplsblockshead.php file and put below line into:

<meta http-equiv=”content-type” content=”text/html; charset=utf-8″ />

2. Backup your website (database and modified files), try to refer this tip to solve your issue since it maybe that the content type was set basing on your language when you created the database for the website.

Hi Leo

Thanks for the reply. I just added the code you suggested, but still not any good results.

Tried to understand the second suggestion you wrote, but you totally lost me there. I think i might need a tutorial to get something like that done.

Could you make an easy tutorial where you just write the names of the bottoms? Example: go to phpadmin –> press database —> …

Hi jurridk,

You can try to open phpmyadmin >> SQL > And run this query:

ALTER DATABASE <database_name> CHARACTER SET utf8;

Backup your database before running above query. It still don’t make sense, i suggest you to create the new database with utf8_general_ci . Then install the JA Onepage quickstart again on the new database since I see your website is a fresh installation of our template.

I havn’t done the instructions above yet. But do you think it’s because I am working in an offline server (xampp)?

Hi jurridk,

Sorry for lasting the concern. I have checked the language files of our JA Onepage template again, found that they are not created with utf-8 encoding format. That may cause the issue in displaying your Danish letters.

Anyways, you can try to create new .ini file with the content of languageen-GBen-GB.tpl_ja_onepage.ini file, then save the new language file with utf-8 encode. With WordPad or Notepad ++, you can do that.

Make sure the new language file also named: en-GB.tpl_ja_onepage.ini
