I think I have solved my strange characters issue in my blog. When a database is over 20 years old, it’s bound to have some rust.
This is a test entry with ‘lots of punctuation’ and off-beat characters like an é and an è. This is from my Mac.
Here’s a paragraph from my iPhone with è and õ and ü
And here’s an entry from my Linux machine with “quote marks” and ‘single quote marks’ and back ticks
And then one more paragraph from my “iPad Pro” with lots of things going on, including é and è and ø and ü and º degrees
