CM Tooltip Guide: Characters in non-English languages that do not appear correctly

The CM Tooltip plugin works in UTF. This means that your MySQL DB table should also be defined as UTF8

Make sure, you have proper db, table and column charset/collation in your database. When table is created in database, it relies on environmental settings, so if you have charset/collation set for DB that doesn’t allow special characters by default (utf8 characters), then the results will be wrong.

Should be: charset – utf8, collation – utf8_general_ci.

Try following SQL Queries (replace your_wp_db_name with the database name you have set in your WordPress installation):

ALTER DATABASE your_wp_db_name DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

ALTER TABLE your_wp_db_name.wp_glossary_synonyms DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

ALTER TABLE your_wp_db_name.wp_glossary_synonyms MODIFY synonym VARCHAR(145) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
