    Hello, I am using the latest Beta 3 from the SVN trunk, and I've tried to input chinese unicode characters in the image title and captions field, but they appeared garbaged. Is this a known problem or is there a fix for this? Many thanks!

    Basically, whoever encounters this can refer to http://dev.plogger.org/ticket/122

    I've done some digging around and basically the problem lies with plog-functions.php in plogger_get_picture_caption() and plogger_get_picture_description(). the functions htmlentities() and htmlspecialcharacters() are not unicode friendly.

    Also in the admin/js folder, in ajax_editing.js, the use of escape() is also not unicode friendly.

    As a temp solution, by removing all the above enclosing functions, unicode saves and displays correctly now. but by not using escape(), htmlentities(), etc. i think we might run into some problems when the caption/description contains escape characters.
