Peppy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Like the title says--the Thai script in my posts in the Thai language forum has been showing up as nothing but ampersands, pound signs, and numbers since Thursday, like this: ถ้าคุณอ่าน ข้อความนี้ได้ แสดงว่าไม่ มีปัญหาแล้ว I hadn't changed anything with my computer prior to having this problem, and playing with the encoding settings right now doesn't seem to help anything. Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppy Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I should add that I can see Thai-script messages from other posters just fine, which leads me to believe that the problem may be on my end. I just have no idea how it started or how to fix it. Edited July 21, 2012 by Peppy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I just wrote 'testing' in Thai and also have that issue (see below). I've seen this before a several weeks ago and it ended up being a coding issue in the forum software. An upgrade was just done a few days ago so possibly it. I will peek around and see if I can find the original post of the last time this problem occurred. การทดสอบ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I've put it in the bug issues topic in mods forum and it is the same problem as previously and need to apply a patch. Hopefully not long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klons Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 If I may add, if someone feels an urgent need to post Thai script there are other ways to do it. Windows should have s similar feature but I have a Mac. You type up what you want to post, then use the Grab utility , capture selection, select the text and save it. Then open it up with Preview and export it as a jpg because I don't think tiff extensions will post. Then attach it to your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the fix won't take too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
