After upgrading Joomla to 3.5 and Flexicontent to 3.0.14 I receive error when attempting to browse to flexicontent menus in the backend. Error gives message that there is an error on the database which I have run repairs on through phpmyadmin with no luck.

Looks like the database has issues however it is not full at 57% of its capacity. Can you please advise if there is anything that can be done please?
Code:
1267 Illegal mix of collations (utf8_unicode_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation '=' SQL=SELECT COUNT(*) AS total1, ( SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `#__flexicontent_items_ext` AS ie JOIN `#__content` AS i ON ie.item_id=i.id WHERE 1 ) AS total2 FROM `#__content` AS i JOIN `#__flexicontent_items_tmp` AS ca ON i.id=ca.id JOIN `#__flexicontent_items_ext` AS ie ON ie.item_id=i.id WHERE 1 AND i.`title`=ca.`title` AND i.`state`=ca.`state` AND i.`catid`=ca.`catid` AND i.`created`=ca.`created` AND i.`created_by`=ca.`created_by` AND i.`modified`=ca.`modified` AND i.`modified_by`=ca.`modified_by` AND i.`publish_up`=ca.`publish_up` AND i.`publish_down`=ca.`publish_down` AND i.`version`=ca.`version` AND i.`ordering`=ca.`ordering` AND i.`access`=ca.`access` AND i.`featured`=ca.`featured` AND i.`language`=ca.`language` AND ie.`type_id`=ca.`type_id` AND ie.`lang_parent_id`=ca.`lang_parent_id`

Hello

Joomla 3.5.0 improves support for Unicode and changes collations of Database table to:
utf8_unicode_ci or utf8mb4_unicode_ci

this has been reported by other people, please search forum before posting
- we have already made new package (v3.0.14-rc2a) , test it and report back if you still have an issue

also you may subscribe to this, to get early updates of new versions (before new version appears in backend version checks)

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

George, very sorry that I didn't find the previous threads, I did look but maybe did't recognise my issue, I was upgrading multiple sites and one of the sites came up with this error, the others didn't and they are on the same host.

Thanks very much for a quick response and the application is going from strength to strength, thanks for the hours / days that you are investing.
