I am using Tidy (with PHP5) with UTF8 input, output, and char encoding enabled. When I clean a string with an in it, it is replacing it with an odd character. I've tried messing with the tidy config but nothing I try seems to work.
Before Tidy:
This is a test. Why does this not work?
After Tidy:
This is a test. ▒Why does this not work?
I don't know what the character is, but I assume it has something to do with the encoding of the enteties in utf8. Any ideas as to how I can get tidy to just leave the alone?

One of the most important packages in R is the tidyr package. The sole purpose of the tidyr package is to simplify the process of creating tidy data. Tidy data describes a standard way of storing data that is used wherever possible throughout the tidyverse.
replace_na() will not work if the variable is a factor, and the replacement is not already a level for your factor. If this is the issue, you can add another level to your factor variable for 0 before running replace_na(), or you can convert the variable to numeric or character first.
tidyr provides three main functions for tidying your messy data: gather() , separate() and spread() . Sometimes two variables are clumped together in one column. separate() allows you to tease them apart ( extract() works similarly but uses regexp groups instead of a splitting pattern or position).
Similarly to readr , dplyr and tidyr are also part of the tidyverse. These packages were loaded in R's memory when we called library(tidyverse) earlier.
Have you tried the preserve-entities config option?
