strange characters after fresh installation
HELLO
Please help
LWC
If it happens everywhere, did you make sure to either:
1) Enable UTF-8 in the installation and create a Unicode table.
2) Not enable UTF-8 in the installation and create a localized table.
?
HELLO
It always happens to me in the installation's result page, but dissapears as soon as I surf elsewhere.

?
1) yes.
2) yes.
And I am working in localhost.
Please help

I already did. Might LWC can explain what he knows or understands. Thanks
What's the Geeklog version? What's your OS? Microsoft Windows? And what's your PHP version and MySQL version? And have you tried to delete all and install anew?

I am not sure you understood LWC's question. He asked if you did either option 1 or 2. In simple terms, choosing option 1 allows you to support multiple languages on your site. By choosing option 2 you would be mainly supporting your own language.
To be safe, I would go with option 1 since it can be a bit of a pain to switch over later (which I found out).
