Problem: If you're trying to update the language to Cyrillic and encounter display issues like 'БългарÑкÐ', this might be due to a database character encoding issue. Solution: We recommend going to WPML → Languages → Site Languages → Edit Languages to modify the display name of each language. Ensure your database tables and columns use a UTF-8 compatible collation, preferably 'utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci'. For more details, visit WPML Minimum Requirements. If you're unsure about making these adjustments, please contact your hosting provider to update the database collation safely.
