thinking of getting back to the good old joomla-kunena compination......
except if there is someone who can help us urgentlly.........

after many tries,i got it.....went to phpmyadmin,found the function "convert" and i converted the whole database to utf8-unicode_ci
this is kind of strange,because i never had problems with utf8-general ci
anyway,case is closed.....keep on with oxwall!

Erik, we are going to get rid of Zend Escaper library, so I believe this issue will be fixed in the upcoming update. 

Either you wait for 2 more weeks and wait for the update or provide us access details to your server and website.
