Are you using this module? If so does uploading normally works fine (with transliteration) but only not for NG?

i think main function of (transliteration) is to convert non English character files to English one, but what i want is to keep the Arabic file names as it is (Arabic), cause i use these names to describe the photos itself.

#1284838: Separate gallery name and gallery URL to support non-latin names is a similar issue.

I am not sure what NG can or should do to handle those situations. This could need some input from the main maintainers. One problem is that this is basically core/fielfield default behavior.

Would the solution mapped out in the other issue help you?

Second question: why is this issue set against beta2?

So then:
You are not using the latest aka best version of NG (but this won't save your problem most likely). But opening a support request and NOT using the recommended release can make things pretty hard. How do we know that the problem is still present in the recommended release?

Secondly: If the problem is still present in the latest release (most likely), I don't know what we could do here because this is more or less core behavior. Until one of the maintainer chimes in or someone else can map out a solution I fear you have to stand in the rain.

i have updated to latest release, same problem.
i think u r right, it could be related to the core itself, i only need someone to show me the way, where to search, what needed to be tweaked, i like rain already but not all the time :P

At this point, I won't be adding new features to the D6 version. If features are wanted for D7, please post a new issue.
