特殊字符在浏览器中正确显示，但在phpMyAdmin中加扰

I have a php netbeans project. The encoding for the project is UTF-8. Special characters display correctly in the ide. (img 1)

I use phpmyadmin and the encoding for the entire database is utf8_unicode_ci (the column also shows this). (img 2)

I use mysqli to connect, and it doesn't make any diference if I call

set_caharset("utf8");

(img 3)

In the browser everything is ok (including searches with special characters): (img 4)
But in phpMyAdmin the text introduced through mysqli is scrambled (whilst text introduced manually is ok - id 13 in the picture) (img 5)

encoding problem phpmyadmin mysqli

What should I do to send text correctly in phpmyadmin.

[edit] Some more info. I don't know how to interpret or use this, bu this is what

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set%'

displays.

Variable_name: Value
character_set_client: utf8mb4
character_set_connection: utf8mb4
character_set_database: latin1
character_set_filesystem: binary
character_set_results: utf8mb4
character_set_server: latin1
character_set_system: utf8
character_sets_dir: D:\Programe\XAMPP\mysql\share\charsets\

[edit2] Ok, it is something that is server related. I uploaded the same code that generated the database on a different server and everything is ok. Do you have any ideas where the problem could be?

It's resolved!

I'm not sure how, because I made multiple modifications before testing. Where I edited:

  • on the front-page of phpmyadmin (localhost/phpmyadmin) under server colation I choose other types of utf8.

  • I had a different connection class for the setup where I didn't call: set_caharset("utf8");
