Okay I think I will do both though, since I prefer not to have special
wierd chars in my url's and filenames.
So I think I will
1. take contact to my hosting provider for correct setup.
2. use a filter function that removes special chars from the uploaded
file's filenames
I attempted to write that filter function for use in my models.py and
here it is:
def upload_to(path, attribute):
#removes special chars from filenames being uploaded, and can also
be used for seo purposes etc. to order images into special dirs
def upload_callback(instance, filename):
if attribute == '':
#e.g.: image = models.ImageField(upload_to =
upload_to('uploads/', ''))
return '%s/%s' % (path, unicode(slugify(filename)))
else:
#e.g.:
#title = models.CharField(max_length=25)
#image = models.ImageField(upload_to =
upload_to('uploads/', 'title'))
return '%s%s/%s' % (path,
unicode(slugify(getattr(instance, attribute))),
unicode(slugify(filename)))
return upload_callback
Please give me feedback :o)
Will that work?
