A WordPress plugin that safely converts database tables from latin1 to UTF-8 without corrupting your data.
Why This Plugin?
Many WordPress databases have UTF-8 encoded content incorrectly stored in latin1 columns. Direct conversion can corrupt special characters, emoji, and international text. This plugin uses a binary intermediate step to prevent data corruption during conversion.
Features
- ✅ Adjustable charset and collation – Choose your target charset and collation
- ✅ Scans all WordPress tables and displays current charset/collation
- ✅ Safe two-step conversion process (text → binary → target charset)
- ✅ Preserves your actual data encoding
- ✅ Shows conversion progress in real-time
- ✅ Detailed logging of each step
- ✅ Allows selective table conversion
- ✅ Identifies already-converted tables
- ✅ Works via admin interface OR WP-CLI
Automate charset conversion with enterprise-grade safety.
Hours of database work done in minutes.
