Ways to copy arabic words from database

Hi,

Make sure that in IE, View -> Encoding is set to UTF -8, and you need to change the Locale of your windows OS to Arabic

(go to Control Panel, Regions and Language settings -> Language -> Arabic).

Another option:

Open up your wp-config.php and find this line:

 define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');

Last option:

Check in Settings > Reading that you've got encoding set to UTF-8.

Hope to enjoy it.

Thanking you.
