When users upload a file with non-alphanumeric characters, escape is added to the filename, which renders the file as broken.
e.g. User uploads: I'm Broken.mp3
Filename: I\'m Broken.mp
Any suggestions on how I can keep this from happening?
Thank you.
I received your contact us request on this and have sent it to our lead developer who will look into it. There is nothing you can do currently to prevent this, it's escaping characters because it does this for security reasons before storing it in the database and appears to also be doing this to the filename. We will look at what needs to be changed to resolve this in the next release.
Tanmccuin - Are you using the latest versions of WordPress and Gravity Forms? It should automatically add %20 instead of a space in file names, to make them work as expected.
