so i forked a site from the project OpenIB and the problem is that when i try to post in chinese or any emojis, it wouldnt show up. my test page is test

the interesting part about it is that when i try to access via mod.php, and try to view or post, chinese/emojis are able to be shown up. ive checked html pages, they have utf8 set up, and my sql has default utf8 setting as well. i wonder if its a permission problem or something, and ive provided the github source code page

  1. when i try to post threads as anonymous, only post.php method is used

  2. when i try to post as admin, mod.php and /inc/mod/pages.php is used. i think it has something to do with pages.php, it might has given somme certain permission that i can use to post chinese/emojis

  3. checked my mysql setting using show variables like '%character%' all of them are utf8 except that the character_set_filesystem is binary. i think its not a problem

  • Are you sure you have UTF-8 *all the way through*? See [this answer](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/279170/utf-8-all-the-way-through) for general advice. – tadman Jan 31 '19 at 18:09
  • ive tried it, but the problem is that when i use the mod mode they all show up perfectly, is it possible that something rejected anonymous users to submit utf8 to the server? im pretty noob on mysql and php –  Jan 31 '19 at 18:35
  • Try with Latin characters first, then test other things. é, then Ω, then ♻︎, 字 and then and see which work and which don't. – tadman Jan 31 '19 at 18:53
  • when i try to post é, Ω and 字, it returns back "body too short or empty", and when i try with ♻︎ and it returns "Caught fatal error: Call to undefined function apc_fetch() in /var/www/OpenIB/inc/cache.php on line 49" –  Jan 31 '19 at 19:23
  • Not sure what's causing those errors since the corresponding insert code isn't shown. Can you reproduce this independently of the PHP forum software? This could be a bug in the software, or that the software has to be set up in a very specific way. – tadman Jan 31 '19 at 19:56
