    Hello, the first, thank you very much for this plugin, it works fine, at least with my configuration with Nginx.
    In general it works fine and serves/converts .jpg files into .webp or .avif format, but in my case, there are some images that have local characters (Spanish) in the name, for example the image “children-playing”ni?os-jugando-río.jpg” it does not work; The original image does not work (error 404) but neither does it create the directory or the image in the cache directory, I suppose there is something wrong with having special characters in the name. If I don’t apply the Nginx redirection rules, the original .jpg image is served, but the plugin doesn’t work… Any idea what it could be and if it’s easy to fix?
    Thank you very much again

    Hi tlozano,

    Thank you for your feedback and support! I’ll take a look at the images with special characters. Of course that should work too.

    I’ll message you as soon as I have more information about this issue.

    Hi @tlozano ,

    How did you upload the files with local characters? As wordpress replaces all local characters with “ascii” characters in the media library.

    The uploaded file “children-playing-ni?os-jugando-río.jpg” becomes “children-playing-ninos-jugando-rio.jpg”, and works in my installation.

    Oh. Well, they are images from the year 2018 that have been there for a long time. The same update now no longer happens. I think I can re-upload the images and that would work, so I think the ticket can be closed. Sorry and thank you very much for your work.
