dannyd Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 (edited) Hello We are on PS 1.7.7 Prestashop stores it's data encoded as utf8mb4. For instance: But all of the modules, that we installed, store their data as utf8mb3. For instance: Our MariaDB SQL server is currently configured with "character-set-server = utf8" which defaults to utf8mb3. We need to change that setting to utf8mb4. Does anyone have any experience with character encoding? What would be the consequences of such a change for Prestashop operations and it's data stored in the database? Thank you for any suggestions.

Prestashop Addict Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 (edited) Hi, utf8mb4 is used to support multi bytes characters like 🙈😂😱🍰☑🙏... If you want to support them, you should use this encoding.
