Kunena 6.3.0 released
The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 6.3.0 [K 6.3.0] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 4.4.x/5.0.x/5.1.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 6.3
Question Why Kunena 4.x allows utf-8 characters in attachment filenames?

How can I configure Kunena to automatically strip non-ASCII characters from the filenames?
Thanks.

This is very annoying. Because I always use Akeeba Backup to make site backups, but if the filename contains non-ASCII characters, then Akeeba Kickstart can NOT decompress the backup file. That means all backup files are cracked.
Hope you will fix this soon. and hope you will keep this feature for ever: never allow non-ASCII characters in filenames for attachments.
Thank you.

Don't forget to "combine" this feature to Kunena for ever.

So I think we should avoid to use non-ASCII characters in the filename of attachments.

It would be great if there was a choice in Kunena configuration.So I think we should avoid to use non-ASCII characters in the filename of attachments.
What archive engine you use in Akeeba?
I use zip format, I have no problems with Russian and other language file names. But i think it may depend on server settings.
When I connect to FTP via FileZilla, I set Force UTF-8.
And file transfered successfull.
