â„¢ Is showing up on my Random Products plug in rather than the trademark symbol that is supposed to be there. How do I correct this?

Hi, Sheen!
Most likely the problem is caused by the fact that your WP uses UTF-4 charset. Default Wordpress' charset is usually UTF-8. Could you please try to change it back to UTF-8 and check Random Products plugin after that?

In order to change charset you should log into WP admin area, go to Settings menu > Reading subsection and there you will find the Encoding for pages and feeds field that needs to be populated as UTF-8.

Please, let me know if it helps you.

Hi!

Thank you! The setting was already at UTF-8, however. Any other ideas will be appreciated.

Thank you!

Well, but source code of your WP pages still shows UTF-4 charset:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html dir="ltr" lang="en-US">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-4" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0">
<title></title>

It looks like your theme have this value hard-coded. If possible could you please check the following file in your WP installation:
<WP>/wp-content/themes/<YOUR-THEME-NAME>/header.php

There you should find the code similar to:

Code:

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

Please, let me know what is this code in your theme.

Hi Swift!

It is:

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

Does that help?

Thank you!

That's odd.

Could you go to the following page in your WP admin area:
* wp-admin/options.php

and then search for the blog_charset variable? What value does it have?
