How to deal with spaces in filenames?

Hi Almar,

Sounds like you may have gotten this to work on the other ticket.

Let me know if you still need anything here.

Hi Almar,

I was able to track down the cause of the issue. Turns out the sanitization which happens before update is stripping out any special URL characters before counting or updating.

I have logged a task on our end to path this issue in a future version of the plugin. In the meantime, you may add the following filter to your active theme’s functions.php file to support replacing %20 with ‘ ‘.

add_filter( 'sanitize_text_field', function ( $prev, $str ) { if ( is_object( $str ) || is_array( $str ) ) { return ''; } $str = (string) $str; $filtered = wp_check_invalid_utf8( $str ); if ( strpos( $filtered, '<' ) !== false ) { $filtered = wp_pre_kses_less_than( $filtered ); $filtered = wp_strip_all_tags( $filtered, false ); $filtered = str_replace( "<\n", "&lt;\n", $filtered ); } $filtered = preg_replace( '/[\r\n\t ]+/', ' ', $filtered ); return trim( $filtered ); }, 10, 2 );

Have a great weekend!
