I have a stable joomla 1.0.15 & joomfish 1.8. I have a few languages with different character sets (japanese, russian). When I try to fill in the title for static content, without wysiwyg editor, Joomla just transforms my entity codes and therefore my title are being converted before saved. If I fill in the title via phpmyadmin, titles are just fine on the page, if I use Joomla, then they will be converted to unknown character sets. What to do? I have another Joomla 1.0.13 & joomfish 1.7 working fine without any problems. I woudn't want to downgrade to earlier version.
