Streamline Your Filenames with Clean Filenames Plugin
The Clean Filenames plugin for WordPress is a practical tool designed to enhance the compatibility of file names uploaded to your site. It effectively removes or replaces special and international characters, ensuring that filenames comply with server standards and third-party services. For instance, it transforms filenames like 'España.png' into 'Espana.png', and replaces '+' with '-' for improved readability. Furthermore, it addresses potential issues by ensuring all characters in the filename are limited to letters, numbers, underscores, dashes, and dots, while also converting all letters to lowercase.
This plugin operates seamlessly during the file upload process, modifying filenames only after activation. It supports a variety of international characters, including those from several languages such as Polish, Russian, and Spanish. The Clean Filenames plugin is compatible with WordPress 3.0 and higher, making it a valuable addition for users looking to maintain clean and compliant file names.
