Question:
====
I have a WordPress website on my local WAMP server. But when I upload its database to live server, I get error
#1273 – Unknown collation: ‘utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci’
Solution
===
You can solve this by finding
ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci;
in your .sql
file, and swapping it with
ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_general_ci;
