Emoticons not inserted in category descriptions
Posted: 16 Apr 2020, 20:56
Hello !
I'm turning to you because I have issues inserting emoticons in category descriptions.
I recently opted for JCE Pro as an editor, which is fully compatible with all my website, meaning I have no problems adding emoticons to my articles. Yet, I cannot do so when it comes to typing a description of category
. When I click on "save" in my editor, the smiley is tranformed into a "?", which is a problem. I contacted JCE developers and they told me that it was most probably due to the fact that my databse tables (the phocadownload ones ??) were not utf-8 (I quote : "the encoding and collation of the table must be UTF-8 Unicode") ... any idea of how I could check this ? change this ? have you ever had questions about this ? 
Thanks for helping me !
