Hello,
I found a bug at the store_method, which does not save product titles in utf-8. It does use unicode to encode special characters like " and saves " for this example, which still results in correct views inside VirtueMart but wrong encoding in other components, like com_search.
It could be made because of the sql queries... when I manually change the names via sql and edit a product at the backend, the string is cutted at the special character. That´s why I guess the sql-store method as the first point of view.
It should be globally worked in utf-8 as this is the standard, imho.
Is there a workaround available or planned? At least the search plugin should be overworked, shouldn´t it?
VirtueMart version 3.0.10
Joomla! version 3.4.5
Bes regards,
Pierre.
In the dropdown for child products for example this one is visible, they display as " etc
