[Pro] £ symbol not showing

Freeway
1

Hi all, I’m sure this is something simple but can’t seem to work it out.
I’m building a website for a restaurant and when the page is uploaded as a Freeway page the £ symbol showed fine, but when it’s added via WebYep, I get the diamond with a ? in the middle.

Any thoughts much appreciated.

Have you tried setting the character set in the WebYep config file? In the WebYep System folder there is a file called Config-inc.php and in that there is a setting near the top of the page called $webyep_sCharset = “”;. Try putting utf-8 between the quotation marks.

Ah, haven’t tried that - not very good when it comes to the coding
side of things - but I’ll give that a go and report back.

What’s UTF-8 while I’m typing?
thanks

Unicode, using 8 bits per character. It allows the sort of
multilingual thousands-of-glyphs typefaces that your modern computer
uses these days.

Thanks Walter, and ignore my last post - when I went in and re-edited
the WebYep bits it came out fine, so many thanks for that.

Then make sure your page is manually set to Unicode also. Freeway’s
default Automatic only does that sometimes, even though it’s supposed
to be the default.
