# URL Double Encoding

 * Hi, I’m having issues with the URL in the enclosures in my RSS feed. My audio
   files are stored on my site and the filenames have spaces in them. When I copy
   the URL to publish a new sermon it ends up encoding the spaces as %20, (which
   is to be expected). However, they end up being double encoded when the RSS file
   is created so any %20 ends up being %2520 in the RSS enclosure. This breaks my
   links. Of course I can change all my file names to not include spaces, which 
   I plan on doing going forward, but is there anything else I can do to remedy 
   this? It seemed to work ok until about a month or so ago.
    Thanks, Greg Thomas

 * Hi, I installed version 2.6 and it crashed my site. I had to have my hosting 
   provider disable the plug-in before I could get access back. Any ideas? Is there
   somewhere I can download the previous version to get it back up and running?
   
   Thanks, Greg

 * Hey [@gregthomas129](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gregthomas129/),
 * I have replied in the other ticket, just install latest Sermon Manager release
   🙂
 * Btw, it’s a good move that you updated PHP version
