Topic: Character encoding

SimpleCMS outputs special characters, including non-western alphabets, in UTF-8.

Your web pages must include the following meta tag in the <head> section.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

You can find out more about UTF-8 here:

Ensure you remove other character encodings such as ISO-8859-1 as they might override the UTF-8 encoding.

Re: Character encoding

Great. And the HTML5 standard is also supported? 

<meta charset="utf-8">

Re: Character encoding

That's correct, the system supports HTML5.
