      I have a problem with the german umlauts.
      Partly it works, but in the order mail and at the confirmation page, there are errors.
      pß instead of ß etc.

      In the wp-config.php I have:

      /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
      define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);

        looks like a server setup issue to me (i.e wrong dataset/encoding somewhere)

        just go here
        https://www.wp-pizza.com/twentytwelve/ and do a fake order (with your email address so you get an order confirmation)
        and some umlaute , sz’s etc

        you’ll see it works just fine

          In fact it is a problem with the german Provider STRATO.

          They write:

          Da die meisten STRATO-Kunden charset=iso-8859-1 nutzen, wurde bei PHP 5.6 diese Textcodierung eingeführt.
          Sie können diese in utf8 mit einer selbst erstellen .user.ini Datei mit folgendem Inhalt ändern.

          
default_charset="UTF-8"

          Laden Sie dann die .user.ini in das Hauptverzeichnis Ihres Webspaces hoch.

          Since PHP 5.6 it is important to have a .user.ini with default_charset="UTF-8"
          Now it works.

          Thank you for support and a great plugin!
