enforce utf8 in all text

Added by Turnip Zoink 4 months ago

Hi. I'm trying to prevent non-utf characters from entering our ticketing system.
Are text fields utf8 by default? Is there a way to enforce this?

thanks,

The web page is presented as UTF8, so any content that you paste there will be saved as UTF in the database, if your users are pasting non utf content in this form it will be still stored as if it was UTF.
The best approach is for the source content to be in UTF (most systems are properly reading/writing UTF today)

What do I need to do to get the next version of Redmine to ensure that all inputted text is valid UTF8 characters?

I would appreciate an answer from someone knowledgeable of the inner workings of Redmine.
