    Hi
    When a user uploads an image e.g. Colin’sFlag.jpg
    The popup that holds the error message shows a 403 error message.

    Assume it happens with other special characters

    regards
    Colin

    That shouldn’t happen. Special characters in filenames should simply get replaced by ‘_’.

    A 403 error usually indicates an attempt to access something you don’t have permission to see.

    If you are quite sure the problem is really caused by special characters in the filename, please let me know
    1. The exact filename
    2. The exact error message
    3. The versions of EntryWizard, WordPress and PHP you are running

    Further checking shows it happens when uploading files to the media library as well so it isn’t your plugin.

    Any clues to why this would happen?
