Odd text appearing

[knackler]

Our board has suddenly developed a problem.  random characters are appearing in the gaps between words , in words and at the end of sentences Like 0€" .
This is not just effecting new text but old posts and our home page ?

Same. Noticed it as well. Made a ticket here too

It may be a problem with difference of character set encoding. Mixing latin1 and UTF-8.

While you say it "suddenly developed", something changed on the server, possibly a MySQL upgrade.

Right around that time, one of my forum members had a sig that displayed that problem. And it was only that one, so I edited it out. I don't know what his source was originally, but it appeared to be a copy/paste from somewhere.

For me. I haven't upgrade the MySQL Server just applied this latest update for MyBB and it happened same time.
