Thank you for that link. I think this is the heart of the issue.
Following the advice on the web page, I ran these commands:
SET NAMES utf8;
SET CHARACTER_SET utf8;
But I can check my MySQL system variables in phpMyAdmin, and here's what
it says:
Variable Session value Global value
character set client utf8 latin1
character set connection utf8 latin1
character set database latin1 latin1
character set results utf8 latin1
character set server latin1 latin1
character set system utf8 utf8
collation connection utf8_general_ci latin1_swedish_ci
collation database latin1_swedish_ci latin1_swedish_ci
collation server latin1_swedish_ci latin1_swedish_ci
What I want to do is change *all* of these to utf8. That's the only
encoding I ever work in, and I want to make my system as consistent as
possible.
What commands do I run to permanently fix all of these collation and
character set variables to utf8?
