This [url=http://forums.b2evolution.net/viewtopic.php?t=13366&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=]HOWTO[/url] is reasonably comprehensive. You must figre out the charset from the B2evo and the charset from theMySQL databse. At least they must be the same and if you want to publish in non Latin supported languages, you want both to be UTF-8.
So read the HOWTO and report back o this topic if you have subsequent questions.

Good luck

Oh, thanks. It'll be a long ride, it seems!!!

I sincerely expect that "this is the last time" I'll have to change my skin, really. I tried to redo the NifftyGreen but everything messed up! So, now I will customize the new skin you saw on my website once and for all. Somebody said here that from v2+ no other skin customization would be needed. I hope so, because it is a real stone in one's shoe :)

Thanks again, and if I'll run into some kind of problem, I'll let you know it, be sure.

Possible error?:

In

$db_config['connection_charset'] = 'utf8'; (did you miss the hyphen?... utf-8... or it was purposely?)

PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANKS A LOT!!!!

Now mySQL is in right collation utf8_unicode_ci

GREAT RESPONSE MAN!!!

I am uploading my css file for showing those Sankrit transliterations in a better form anyway (through the Gentium font, a link to download it will be put afterwards). OK, now get down to work in customization the new skin.

Thanks again... you saved my life :lol:

I checked the entire DB with a tool of the server and the tables are completely OK (no errors!!!). I made a backup, of course. Great, friend!

I can't generate the two static pages (in English and Spanish) despite I place the ID, and URL in URLs and Advance tabs because:

"You haven't defined a source file for this blog!"

What did that mean?

Oh yes, I understood:

ID of my blogs in Advanced, then index.php (stub) and ultimately generate the static pages in every language:

http://www.sanskrit-sanscrito.com.ar/answers/blogs/answering.html

and

http://www.sanskrit-sanscrito.com.ar/answers/blogs/respuestas.html

I got it! Thanks anyway.

Now, to customize "Answering" and "Respuestas" links so that they work as I want the two to, i.e. with static pages in .html

Cool!

BTW: As I have now all in utf-8 (Unicode), I don't have to tolerate while editing posts those terrible NCRs anymore (you know &#877 or something, every time a strange character occurred)
