Error encoding as ISO-8859-1 – How to fix in cPanel

So this error has been bugging me for a little while. It usually appears when someone copies and pastes something from word or another program into the cPanel HTML editor – even if they used the “Paste from External Source” button.

To fix it…

1 – go to cPanel’s File manager.
2 – click “Settings” (its right in the top left corner)
3 – Untick “Disable Encoding Check”
4 – Open the offending page with the cPanel HTML Editor
5 – Choose UTF-8 instead of ISO-whatever.

Worked for me – hopefully it works for you too.
