Tags with non-ascii (international) characters don't work after upgrade to version 1.6

By bthj 5742 days ago

After upgrading from version 1.5 to 1.6 clicking on tags with non-ascii characters yields no results (was ok in 1.5).

First after the upgrade tags didn't work at all but after applying the .htaccess fix from

http://community.elgg.org/mod/groups/topicposts.php?topic=220244&group_guid=12

then tags only with letters from the English alphabet do work as expected but tags with letters as áéóúíðþæö still don't.

What might be causing this and how can I fix it?

A solution is in SVN at http://code.elgg.org/elgg/releases/core/elgg1.6.2 This will be released as soon as I can get some feedback from users that this 1) fixes UTF8 issues and 2) fixes data path storage issues.
Note: Please run this on a test site! If you've manually changed core or your database settings this will probably break the UTF8 strings.
