Description TheSteffen Mon 22 Oct, 2012 21:53	If you insert a new RSS block via CMS http://elpais.com/tag/rss/deportes_motor/a/ The umlaute are shown as question mark. My quick solution was OPEN /blocks/rss.php FIND Code: [Hide] [Select] Code: [Show] $title = htmlspecialchars_clean(ip_utf8_decode(strip_tags($rss_channel['items'][$j]['title']))); REPLACE WITH Code: [Hide] [Select] Code: [Show] $title = strip_tags($rss_channel['items'][$j]['title']); Maybe it is not the best way to solve this.

Doesn't that break other utf8 stuff ? Was the DB converted to utf8 correctly ? (I think this change can break other sites)

I need time to check this... Informpro, do you have time to test and try to solve this?
