File System Encoding

This website contains links to software which is either no longer maintained or will be supported only until the end of 2019 (CKFinder 2). For the latest documentation about current CKSource projects, including software like CKEditor 4/CKEditor 5, CKFinder 3, Cloud Services, Letters, Accessibility Checker, please visit the new documentation website.

If you look for an information about very old versions of CKEditor, FCKeditor and CKFinder check also the CKEditor forum, which was closed in 2015. If not, please head to StackOverflow for support.

If you have iconv enabled (visit http://php.net/iconv for more information), you can use this directive to specify the encoding of file names in your system. This option is only important if you use a Windows-based server.

If you use a file system encoding other than the ASCII type, like e.g.EUC-CN (which is a Chinese enoding), some of the options of CKFinder may not work and the name of the file which the user uploaded could be changed. If you want to avoid this kind of situation only use ASCII file names.

Examples of different file system encoding 

$config['FilesystemEncoding'] = 'CP1250';
$config['FilesystemEncoding'] = 'ISO-8859-2';
$config['FilesystemEncoding'] = 'UTF-8';
