This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are encountering an issue where incorrect unicode characters ('@' and 'Ã') are appearing on the live product pages, but not within the WPML Translator.
Solution:
We recommend checking the character encoding settings of your database and your WordPress configuration. Ensure that your database is set to use 'utf8mb4' encoding and that your wp-config.php file includes the line
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8mb4');
. If these settings are correct and the issue persists, it might be related to the theme or other plugins that could interfere with the correct display of characters on the front end. In such cases, try disabling other plugins temporarily to see if the issue resolves. If none of these steps work, please visit our support forum and open a new ticket for further assistance. We also highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.
If the provided solution does not resolve your issue or seems irrelevant, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket at https://wpml.org/forums/ for personalized assistance.
