Yes I've changed about 20 of the tables. But there's over 200 more, I'd prefer not to do each one by one. Is there a way I can change all the tales in one go? A query ?

I know how to back up my forum database :-)

I would think you would need to write a script if you want to do all the tables in one go.

Ok. Is there a guide to do that?

If you know PHP programming, you should be able to knock something up.

You want a guide on how to write PHP code? I love w3schools for reference.

Ok, all my database tables are now set to utf8_general_ci

I thought this would solve my problem but it has not.

When I set the HTML Character Set to UTF-8 I get squares for some of the characters (see attachment)

When I set the HTML Character Set to ISO-8859-1 I get ï¿½ for some of the characters (see attachment)

See attachment for original characters in source article.

What are you using now for a feed? I tried a couple of the links you posted earlier but they didn't seem to be working.

Hmm...for some reason that seems to post only the article titles with a "More..." link, and all the titles seem to look OK.
