Re: I experience problem with special chars like æøå in filename when using models.ImageField. and models.FileField

Hi Karen, I did not know there was a new release, sorry.

So if I just install the new release, it will solve the problem just
like that?
Or do I still need to do something, in order to make it work with
special chars in the filenames?

Thanks :o)
