I see question marks and incomprehensible symbols on the site

If incomprehensible characters are displayed on your site, this is due to incorrect encoding of the database and / or page.
To solve this problem, you need to change the page encoding. Also, your site must have a UTF-8 meta tag. You can add this line to the top of your index.php page: header ('Content-Type: text / html; charset = utf-8')
Problems can also arise if the files are encoded in "UFT8 with BOM". You need to open the files on your PC and set the encoding "UFT8 without BOM". After that, you need to download the files again. You can change the encoding using Notepad ++.
