Imported from Greymatter – odd characters?

  • I just imported my entries via Greymatter to WP 1.2 and then upgraded to WP 1.5. It worked like a charm! I have the fine folks on this support forum to thank for that. ??

    There is only one thing, and I think it has something to do with the text encoding. All of the smart quotes in my entries, such as: (‘) (“) (-) and sometimes even the (…), have all been replaced with (?).

    Is there an easier, less pain-staking, way to change them back, or does this have to be done by hand. I’m willing to do that, even though it’ll take eons (I have over 200 entries). Aak!

    Please ignore my pleas, above.

    I figured it out myself. I merely changed the page encoding to ISO-8859-1 instead of UTF-8 and all of the instances are back to normal (this can be changed in OPTIONS > Reading > Encoding for pages and feeds).
