I have upgraded right now Sendy to 1.1.7.3 and the result of it is all the Russian names in brands/brands data are now displayed garbled every character is displayed as if ASCII is in effect , not Unicode).
When I have tried to replace it with Russian strings once again, I only saw question marks in text fields.
Looks like the upgrade has destroyed Unicode support for certain fields.
Updated: better subject set.
What I am expected to do now?
