some basic question, if i may
 

hey.

i not really a coder or php guru but i kinda learn from the "reverse" engineering if i may say so. anyway; i've already traslated a couple of WP plugins, etc. and i also did some language tweaks for revolution media pro.

the thing that bothers me is that i really don't know which files can be encoded from ANSI to UTF-8 for an example (i need eastern lagugage support). so, sometimes i get messed up theme or wp blog, or whatever.

so, are there any rules of which "files" can be re-encoded and which can not. i hope i did make myself clear enough.
thank you

Hi,

Could you explain a little more about the problems you are having? What version of WP are you using? As to your question, AFAIK you can save any Wordpress template file as utf-8.

well it is just basic stuff when i try to translate some values in e.g. revolution media pro theme. i had this issue untill yesterday when i translated some values. translations inclued eastern language characters so i had to encode files in utf-8.

we know that IE has troubles with himself and some pages were completely messed up. i though i did something wrong in the css but than i found out that the reason was in the files which were eccoded in utf-8.

my resolution was simple; i encoded them back and translated values without eastern europe characters. some translations are not so sleek, but it is acceptable.
