Character set, utf8 and Greek

Hello,

thanks for an excellent work, your page builder is one of the best out there and your themes are what a theme is supposed to be: clean and expandable.

However, as I am developing mostly in Greek, I came across a problem that you may have not noticed: having the content in Greek, it shows as funny characters, due to a codepage mismatch.

The same problem was not present in the origami theme, so I checked to see what the difference was, and it showed that the following line in the vantage theme, in the file header.php was to blame:

<meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>" />

This should be instead replaced by

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>" />

and the Greek characters display as they should.

The same problem exists in the North theme also, and I suppose in the newest unwind theme.

I think you should update your themes to have this fixed.

Thank you again

Iosif Kanakaris
