Easy Upload Renamer Plugin for WordPress

Ahora en español – Maintenant en français – Jetzt auf deutsch – Nu på svenska – Nyt suomeksi

Automatically create pretty, human-readable SEO filenames as you upload your media files to WordPress! This plugin will rename your images and attachments as you upload them to match the title of your post or page.

• Add your blog name to all your uploads! Users who download your photos or see them on Google Image Search, have your blog name automatically included in the file name. So if someone hotlinks, downloads or steals your content, the filename will contain your chosen text, unless the end-user goes through the trouble of naming them again.
• It’s a great idea to have pretty, human-readable, meaningful filenames. Instead of DSC1234.jpg or image0001.jpg you’ll get filenames like gulliverstravelblog.com-the-london-trip-01.jpg or thebestrecipes-delicious-apple-pie-02.jpg.
• Search engines love meaningful file names. Get higher PageRanks with your Search-Engine Optimized WordPress uploads!
• Save yet another step: You can choose to automatically set the WordPress attachment title to match your post.
• Easily locate your files afterwards in the WordPress Media Library: all your files now meaningful, understandable names, and you’ll know in which post you used them.
• According to the consensus in the SEO (Search Engine Optimization) community, all filenames are automatically sanitized and made lowercase to make your URLs friendlier to search engines.
• The rename options and plugin behaviour are configurable to your tastes. You can choose to rename all attachments or only photos.
• With Spanish, French, German, Swedish and Finnish translations now included!

Totally Automatic!

1. Create a post or a page and give it a title

2. Upload a file…

3. …wait for your upload to complete…

4. Your file name and title now match the post!

Customize the Plugin for Your Needs

• You can choose to rename only your image uploads or have the plugin rename all your uploads.
• Include and exclude post types from upload renaming
• Enter a text that you want to put in the beginning of your upload filenames, for instance the name of your blog.
• You can choose to use either ’-’ (a dash) or ’_’ (an underscore) as a separator symbol between the parts of the filename.
• If you don’t want to rename your files using the title, you can disable it and use only the prepend string functionality.
• You can choose to have the Title attribute of an uploaded file to be the same for every attachment (e.g. “The Post Title”) or to include a number matching the attachment (e.g. “The Post Title 1”, “The Post Title 2” and so on), or choose not to set the Title attribute at all.

Simple step-by-step installation instructions are in the readme.txt file included in your download.
