Hi,
I had the same problem. I fixed it by adding this two lines to my wp-config.php:
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);
(Backup first – of course – and try this if you want. I had to manually edit the few posts done after the move)
I don’t like this solution, nor the replace one. I’m pretty sure there’s something more logical to be done to fix the DB. That’s why I got here ??
