wp_set_internal_encoding() WordPress Function
The wp_set_internal_encoding() function sets the internal encoding for WordPress. This function is useful for sites that want to change their internal encoding, but it should be used sparingly as it may cause compatibility issues.
wp_set_internal_encoding() #
Set internal encoding.
Description
In most cases the default internal encoding is latin1, which is of no use, since we want to use the mb_ functions for utf-8 strings.
