Hi.
I have problems with the language of my rss feed. All my site is configured with iso-8859-1, and Spanish_Spain locale, but when I put the feed in a portal block, a lot of strange characters appear (you can see it here, the problem is in the "Ultimas 10 Noticias" Block, at the left). Do anyone know how I can fix this?

Sorry for my English. I hope you understand me and anyone can help me. praying it will work

Do you mean this is configured in config.php ?
If yes, did you entered same info encoding and language when creating rdf file?
You should have something like this in your config.php

Text Formatted Code

$_CONF['language']        = 'spanish';
$_CONF['locale']          = 'es_ES';
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';

 


When you create rdf file you should also enter the above info i.e.iso-8859-1 and es_ES.

Hi.

In my config.php I have:
Text Formatted Code

$_CONF['language']        = 'Spanish';
$_CONF['locale']          = 'Spanish_Spain';
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'iso-8859-15';

 


and with these settings all the website is ok except the portal block..

When I create the feed, I put these settings:
Text Formatted Code

Charset encoding: iso-8859-15
Language: es_ES

 


I've tried with different encodings (iso-8859-1, iso_8859-1, UTF-8,...) and different languages (es, es-ES, spanish, Spanish_Spain, ...) with the same results. Banging your head

I don't know where is the problem Question . Please Can someone help me !!!!

Try creating a new rdf file with these settings:
Text Formatted Code

Charset encoding: iso-8859-15
Language: Spanish_Spain

 


You have to be consistent.

Also maybe you should try these settings
Text Formatted Code

$_CONF['language']        = 'Spanish';
$_CONF['locale']          = 'Spanish_Spain';
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';


 

And create rdf with these settings
Text Formatted Code

Charset encoding: iso-8859-1
Language: Spanish_Spain

 


You have to be consistent with these settings.

If the above doesn't work try this
Text Formatted Code

$_CONF['language']        = 'Spanish';
$_CONF['locale']          = 'es_ES';
$_CONF['default_charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';


 

And create rdf with these settings
Text Formatted Code

Charset encoding: iso-8859-1
Language: es_ES

 


Also when you change settings in your config.php, create a new rdf file because if you change encoding in existing rdf file it has to be refreshed. So it's quicker to create a new rdf file.
And remember: Be consitent with the settings Smile
