Okay, I'll admit it. I am so new at this, I have no idea what this " MySQL connection collation" is all about! I don't recall seeing it there before the upgrade, but now all of the databases have been set to "latin1_swedish_ci".

How should this be set for normal use everyday in the United States? :confused:

Thanks!

try utf8_general_ci

This seems to work for me.

can we get this removed? you cant transport files anywhere because no one else uses this column and it is a long process to get that column removed from all the tables.. it causes alot of trouble with some of the new php themes out there as well... all you get is error after error..

PLEASE TAKE IT OUT

thanks
