Re: Posts cut after a number of characters
This is a MySQL "feature" that when inserting text into the database, MySQL cuts off the text when an invalid utf8 character is encountered.
Unfortunately, there is no easy fix. What is needed to be done is match the database collations with the language encoding. There is some talk about this in the SMF Convertor topic. You could try changing the database to utf8 or if it is already utf8, change it to latin1. If it is just that one character that is causing the problem, you could try changing that character in the SMF database.
