Hi,
I have a WP multisite installation and database from last year, my blog with NEWSCAST is in German (backend and frontend) and in my admin settings is utf-8 set.
So far so good - each post shows the correct "umlauts" in German: ä, ö, ü.
Now I have searched my fresh new NEWSCAST site with Google this way http://tinyurl.com/7c5dnzx, and see this:
http://i50.tinypic.com/kba7td.jpg
It must be: »KUNSTBLOG für Foto...«
I have no SEO plugin active, that could have changed anything!
The header.php of NEWSCAST is in my case this:
<?php if( is_404( )) { header("Location: /",TRUE,301); } ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<?php global $k_option, $query_string; $k_option['custom']['real_query'] = $query_string; ?>
<head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
<!-- basic meta tags -->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
<meta name="language" content="de">
Why are these "umlauts" not correct at Google?
What is wrong in the header.php?
Thanks.
Create a new thread and tell me what problems you are encountering and what you want to know. 
There is no step 3 :)
