Works very well out of the box

Very useful and clean, strips every non standard character of all your filenames when uploading. Just activate and forget 🙂 Thanks to the dev for keeping the plugin updated, great job !

Looks Nice but supports Turkish ?

If you answer this review i will appreciate it. I dont ask for Turkish translation, as the plugins supports spanish and some other langs then i ask about Turkish. Does the plugin support Turkish chara

Muy útil!

Previene problemas con tildes, así como homogeneiza los nombres de archivos que a veces se muestran en el frontend, como con el plugin WP Better Attachments.
