Sorry, but I cannot find an item *charset* on this page - see screenshot down. and its interesting that umlaut-letters, which are typed in are shown correctly, but umlaut-letters from system are wrong. see screenshot above

Yes its *0* as no subcotegories should be shown on main page, I ment I only want to get rid of the word *mehr...* in the linktext. Delet ist somewhere in a php-page on server.
If you did a multilingual install, charset is there: http://www.webmastersite.net/screenshots/29858.jpg . You probably didn't change the selector from content to name. At any rate if you're using the pre-supplied file it already has ISO-8859-1 so there's probably some critical information not yet specified. Where precisely do german umlauts not display correctly -- absolutely every page of the site, or just in particular places?

If you don't want them, you need to switch them off instead of changing the setting. Admin -> Settings -> Switches -> "Show subcategories on main page".
I use latin1 as charset & latin1_general_ci as collation (if you only use german characters, you might also set collation to latin1_german1_ci or latin1_german2_ci).
hope I'm right. but what I have to add: I still did not get Categories to work which have Umlaute in their name. WSN always tells me there's no such category
Thank you for your answer. As a part of datas are displayed correctly I think its not a problem of mysqul-settings (see screenshot) e.g. category Oesterreich is OK. Btw, 2 of your 3 links are broken.

Oida,
you may additionally check your (mysql?)database settings for correct charset (and collation).
some useful information concerning charsets can be found here:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8859-1

but what I have to add: I still did not get Categories to work which have Umlaute in their name.
