I have a client that uploads pdf files to the file structure in Dynamicweb and links them to a product using the link selector.
However, if my client changes name of the referencing folder (which they did), it results in loads of 404 errors due to name change in folder names.
To my knowledge of the link selector (core DW functionality), the link provided is a text string, and could just as easily just have been written by typing. I've also concluded that there is no reference of the folder in question in the link.
I would like to propose a change in this feature: I would like the link to be a reference instead of text, so that if the underlying folder is renamed or moved, the link would still reflect this.
Now my client has 500+ links they have to update manually.
I would also like the underlying link to folders be url friendly too. For example: my client's folder (readable) namem is "Datablad - produktbeskrivelser", which in DW is translated to Datablad%20-%20produktbeskrivelser. Is it possible to encode this as datablad_-_produktbeskrivelser insted and keep the readable name in the admin file structure?
And third, I would like if the uploader changes the filename of the uploaded file upon upload, from a file with spaces in it to a file that does not generate validaton errors (w3c/html), so that the name "an image file with loads of spaces and some norewegian characters as æ.jpg" is translated into something without spaces and norwegian characters.
