PHP 5.4 sets UTF-8 as the default for htmlspecialchars, htmlentities and html_entity_decode. The first two will echo an empty string when given a string with umlauts. This commits introduces serendipity_specialchar-wrapper that are meant to be a temporary solution for the s9y-core until PHP 5.6 fixed the bug, so the native charset option of s9y continues to work.
The smartified code as forked from master to 2.0 being outsourced,
now is to find in /include/admin/tplold, which will still be used as
the default backend template dir.
To switch to the new version, please paste the dirs and files of s9y-admin-tpl
as adviced in the readme and reload, but also add a
```php
// End of Serendipity configuration file
// You can place your own special variables after here:
define('SWITCH_TEMPLATE_VERSION', 'true');
```
to the end of your serendipity_config_local.inc.php.
To switch back to the old smartified files, just set a // to the define().
