#6681 new defect (bug)
Profiles: Wrong encoding in profile info (take 2)

Description (last modified by )
Previously: #354, #2026, #2451.
A moderator reported on the forums that their name has recently changed by itself from Юрий to Юрий. Resaving the profile fixes it for a while, but it happened twice in the last month, so they've updated the name to not include any Cyrillic characters for now.
Occasional bugs like this can be hard to reproduce, so this might well be a worksforme, but maybe there is an underlying database or caching issue we could keep an eye on?

Hallo,
The problem appeared 6 weeks ago, I've been trying to ge help since.I did the update in the hope that that would somehow fix the problem.
The words 'ru.w.org is granting of elevated HelpHub'are too technical to comprehend, what do you mean? Do i need to know?
You write: 'DB connection charset.. or something in bbPress/WordPress around charsets..' - is that what is causing the problem? I don't know the meaning of those words but I need to fix this problem and would very much like to try whatever to ge my site back to working order.
What can I do?

It looks like this issue happened on
2023-01-06, some audit logs included below (@yube FYI; I don't think this is anything sensitive). The timestamps included are not the actual timestamps, just included for reference of timeline.
The first update on the 6th is the auto-grant of bbp_participant in the WordPress.org forums, and the next two on ru.w.org is granting of elevated HelpHub permissions.. but you can see that there was corruption in the name back and forth a bit.. I suspect this might be a case where some code is still trying to set the DB connection charset.. or something in bbPress/WordPress around charsets..

The flip-flopping of the data suggests the DB values were likely unchanged and it was just bad data in the cache or being read incorrectly.
@yube Do you recall interacting with any
wp-adminpages or any buddypress.org, bbpress.org, wordcamp.org profiles?

As Dion is able to see, there is no HelpHub role assigned for @yube, also i doubt that he interacted with other wordpress.org sites than ru.wordpress.org (+/support/) or codex.

Hi @gudrunfeldkamp
This issue is unrelated to your previously created tickets seeking support from WordPress.
It looks like you previously created a meta.trac ticket that was automatically deleted that was previously using the Ticket ID #6681. I've responded on your duplicate Core Ticket https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/57474.
