Incrementing numbers per day
Hello,
I'm trying to make a renaming method for my photos including a incremanting number restarting at 001 for every new day.
Let's say I have download 500 photos taken over a week. I want to rename the whole batch like this :
YYYYMMDD_incremanting number
20240825_001
20240825_002
20240825_003
20240825_004
20240825_005
20240825_006
20240826_001
20240826_002
20240826_003
Is there a script for that ?

Hi Vincent,
You don't need a script. Set the collision rule to "Append number" with separator an underscore.
Find a tag that inserts the creation date and use that in a New Name method. Add a Replace method that replaces "-" (dash) with nothing. You are done.
By the way, I used <Date Created:yyyymmdd> and didn't need to remove any dashes.

(It may be a little hard to read, but that's the Name Collision Rule Applied color on my monitor)
Good luck, let us know if you need more help.
