    Issue with spesial characters

    Hi, it seems to be a problem uploading images with "&" in filenames, upload works fine, but the image can't be shown on the web

    You shouldn't use & in filenames for the web. Best practice is to rename the files without special characters or space or something to avoid problems with browsers ;-)

    Hi Kristian,

    As Thomas points out, avoid those... If you're keen on some development, you could use the events to subscribe for media items being created and change the image filename upon saving. (wiki page on events). Also a good video tutorial on exactly this technique can be found on umbraco.tv

     

    Cheers,

    /Dirk
