plugin removes from the source url

    When using a source URL with %20 it removes this when I save the redirection.

    This causes the redirection not to work and getting an 404 error because it is an unknown URL.

    Is there a way to prevent this?

    Thank you for your help,
    Laurien

    PS all other redirections are working perfectly

    Can you give an example of a URL that isn’t working? The plugin should handle spaces correctly.

    Hello John,

    I’m sending you part of the URL. It is an MP3, which does not exist on the domein of the source URL. Could that be the problem?

    This is part of the URL: xp/FridaysOff-Radio%20Interview%20Bas%20van%20der%20Veldt%20-%20Taco%20Oosterkamp.mp3

    In the plugin it becomes: xp/FridaysOff-Radio Interview Bas van der Veldt – Taco Oosterkamp.mp3

    Yes, the mp3 is likely to the be problem. More information here:

    I looked into the information you send.In it states:
    – Delete the file from your server. If the file exists then it may prevent any redirects.

    The thing is, that the file does not exist on the domain I’m using. As it redirects to another domain.

    Ok, there are other options on the page.
