After update to 1.9 my WordPress shows bad characters for all non ASCII characters, on front and in admin. I use PDO, UTF-8 and nb_NO on a multisite. When db driver is removed from Settings, all is fine. Do you need me to test something, just ask. https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-db-driver/ Can you test out every driver. Curious if it’s just PDO or not. Will investigate. Works fine when define( 'WPDB_DRIVER', 'mysqli' ); PHP 5.5 with mysql, mysqli, pdo and pdo_mysql Also fine with define( 'WPDB_DRIVER', 'mysql' ); , after unloading and reloading db driver in Settings. I did change that set_charset() method which only for PDO return false and then should fallback on the previous code. I will see how I can test this out and fix it. Can you try the version on GitHub? https://github.com/markoheijnen/wp-db-driver/ No problems, I was also having the same problem and the latest GitHub version fixes it. Just released the update. Sorry for the problems. I will now start working on writing unit tests before releasing a new update to prevent this kind of issues.
