Hi All,

I have around 27 pages with different language variants for example
Arabic, Chinese etc.., however my project has only one language
variant that is English.

When we are populating specific language content like Arabic we are
providing the language specific attribute called lang="AR-EG", page
preview is coming fine but when it got published to server , all the
characters are as #.

Please can any one help me on this, Is there any setting needs to be
done?

Thanks
Samridhi

Hi Sami,

we had something similar when we added Portugal to our site.
btw, What version is your cms?

The fixing this is not going to come from the cms. Its a code you have to add to your .net framework.

Let me find it. I saved it somewhere.

Hi Sami,

Edit your language variant setting, ensure it is set to UFT-8 instead
of the default [Server].

Best,

As Jian says you need it to be UTF-8, however if your in version 10 you will also need to uncheck the 'Do not write Byte Order Mark (BOM)' in the general settings. This is apparently a new item in v10 and took us and reddot support months to figure out.

Yeah it is working now.... have cross checked and made the language variant to UTF8 instead of Server...

Thanks a lot to all of you.....

Have a great day ahead :)
