upload_translit_restrict_chars_pattern

upload_translit_restrict_chars_pattern¶

Name: File Name Character Restriction Pattern Type: Textfield Default: (See Below) Available In: MODX 3.1.0+

When upload_translit is Yes, Media Manager passes this RegEx into filterPathSegment() as the character-restriction pattern for the uploaded name. That keeps file naming independent of friendly_alias_restrict_chars_pattern.

If this setting is empty, uploads fall back to the Friendly URL restriction settings.

Default (same character class as the factory FURL pattern; no .):

/[\0\x0B\t\n\r\f\a&=+%#<>"~:`@\?\[\]\{\}\|\^\'\\\\]/

Do not add . to this pattern unless you want report.pdf saved as reportpdf. To strip dots from Resource aliases only, put . in friendly_alias_restrict_chars_pattern and leave this upload pattern without it.
