German Characters Showing Incorrectly on Website

[republicstuff]

Hi everyone,

I’ve started working with German content in my admin panel, and I’m running into an issue with special characters. When I enter characters like “ä” or “ß” in the product title, they appear as weird symbols on the live site.

Has anyone faced this issue before? What’s the best way to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

I haven't dealt with solved this myself but there are plenty of other discussions around this issue. If you search for it you should find plenty of answers. Here's one from a long time ago... viewtopic.php?t=204

Might be a problem with encoding not well set between on the DB / the CMS (in config.php). Worth checking everything is in UTF-8.
