However in some servers, usually on linux box, the server locale code need explicitly add .utf8. So if you have problem with strange characters where utf8 doesn’t work. Do the following steps:

1) rename the language folder, add .utf8.

/lang/es_ES.utf8
/lang/fr_FR.utf8

2) language switching also need to be modified to:
