BuddyPress.org

thanks. that helped. though that topic is not very helpful and doesn’t explain what to do for BuddyPress.

for non-English users, I will try to explain here.

via phpmyadmin go to your database. find wp_bb_topics table. click on structure. change all collation values to “utf8_general_ci”

do the same for wp_bb_posts table as well.
