Hello,
Does this mean you're not going to be rewriting spaces to - or is there a new release I failed to find that fixes this? Latest release on Github is from October.
Best,

Hello

yes allowing spaces was intentional
do you use these in some custom code ?

you should encode filename in URLs always

Hello,
Since the filenames used to be rewritten I wasn't URL encoding every image. It does break things with responsive images as image paths aren't always wrapped in quote marks and then new images ended up falling back on the smallest size. Spaces being rewritten is standard in Joomla itself (and Wordpress too) and I don't quite see the purpose of introducing a breaking change like this, could this at least be an option in configuration to turn rewriting spaces and other special characters on and off?
Best,
Agata

Hello,
Here's an example of the rendered source:

Code:

<img src="/images/stories/flexicontent/m_fld61_2bh.090 borde hill rose garden.jpg"
data-src="/images/stories/flexicontent/m_fld61_2bh.090 borde hill rose garden.jpg"
data-srcset="/images/stories/flexicontent/l_fld61_2bh.090 borde hill rose garden.jpg 600w, /images/stories/flexicontent/m_fld61_2bh.090 borde hill rose garden.jpg 300w"
sizes="(min-width: 980px) 50vw, 100vw"
alt=""
class="c-tour__image u-margin-bottom c-tour__image--desk u-hidden-until@desktop lazyload"
itemprop="image"
srcset="https://tours-international.com/images/stories/flexicontent/m_fld61_2bh.090 /borde /hill /rose /garden.jpg 300w, https://tours-international.com/images/stories/flexicontent/s_fld61_2bh.090 /borde /hill /rose /garden.jpg 720w"
sizes="(min-width: 300px) 300px, (min-width: 720px) 720px"  />

As you can see, spaces in the file names will cause this to not work as intended.
Thanks,
Agata
