About Rename during Upload

[sunl]

Hello Friends   

I have problem to solve it will be great help if any one can solve it.

Actually it is related to rename images during upload.

If i upload image through ftp it change capital letters to small letters like this

Megan Fox 1 --> megan_fox_1.jpg

But if i upload through http (through site ) it not change Capital letters to small letter. It change like this

Megan Fox 1 --> Megan_Fox_1.jpg

I want that it also change name through http like this

Megan Fox 1 --> megan_fox_1.jpg

I am not able to find how to do this. Please Help

I am facing the same issue, files get renamed when i add images through "Check new images" option(uploaded via FTP). After adding, files are Case changed and space( ) between a name is replaced with underscore(_)
for example: Anushka Sharma 10.jpg is renamed to anushka_sharma_10.jpg

Working on data/media/2/Anushka Sharma 10.jpg file
File renamed from Anushka Sharma 10.jpg to anushka_sharma_10.jpg
Thumbnail created.
Image resized.
Image added: Anushka Sharma 10

is there any way to disable it?

btw I am using 1.7.10.

I would highly recommend leave it as is, especially if you are a Windows user and one day you might decide copy your website, which most probably a linux system, to your computer.

As v@no said, leave as it is.  Its a good pratice for SEO by naming a image without space
(eg--> Anjelian-jolie.jpg)

You all are right, but my case is different i am not using 4images for Wallpapers or images, the nature of my site is different i serve files and those files should be the same as they are listed on the site. 1.7.10 is currently my beta and on my live site I still have an older version and now i want to move on with the latest version but this issue is keeping from doing so,
Is there any way to turn it off? please

In includes/upload.php remove:

Code: [Select]

     $this->file_name = str_replace(" ", "_", $this->file_name);
      $this->file_name = str_replace("%20", "_", $this->file_name);
      $this->file_name = preg_replace("/[^-\._a-zA-Z0-9]/", "", $this->file_name);
(it's still a bad idea. The best way to go around this is to store original filename in database and send that filename when file being download)
