    Rendering of non-English text characters Issue

    I just noticed that non-English text accented characters aren't being displayed correctly throughout KFN. I believe it's an encoding issue, but not sure where it is coming from, although I suspect it's the encoding currently set for use in MySQL. I've notified Open Source about this.

    UPDATE:

    Found the 'Why' this is occurring, and unfortunately, the fix isn't easy, and likely to present other problems.

    The 'solution', given we can't downgrade MySQL; versions below 8 are not supported in Ubuntu 20.04; is to wait for our Host to upgrade our version of vBulletin to version 5.
