Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Media Rename — OrbitStem

Anything. Accents, spaces, dots and symbols are cleaned up for you, and the rename panel shows the result as you type: Café Paris 2.0 is saved as Cafe-Paris-2-0. If you type an extension such as .jpg it is ignored; the file keeps its own.

No. New installs don't change any uploads until you choose. A one-time notice offers the recommended rules (lowercase, hyphens, transliteration), or pick your own under Media Rename → Auto-Rename Rules. Sites updating from an earlier version keep the rules they had.

Administrators by default. Under Media → Media Rename → Settings you can allow editors, or authors (for files they can edit). Developers can also use the orbitstem_rename_capability filter.

No. Links on your site are updated, and every old file URL (including all thumbnail sizes) gets a 301 redirect to the new file, so external links and image search keep working.

The undo record and redirects are saved before links are updated. On large sites the rename finishes right away and the link update continues in the background with a progress bar (it keeps going with WP-Cron if you close the page). If anything stops part-way, the History tab marks the rename as interrupted and Guide & Tools → Repair old links finishes it. Bulk jobs resume automatically.

Yes. Undo last rename in the panel, Roll back in Rename History (the most recent rename of each file), or Undo this whole job for a bulk run.

Yes. Product images, gallery and variation images are renamed with links updated, the {sku} and {product} tokens are available, and the product editor has a box to rename all of a product's images.

Yes. With the transliteration rule (Auto-Rename Rules), Cyrillic, Greek, Chinese, Arabic and accented letters become readable Latin letters instead of being removed. For example Дача.jpg becomes dacha.jpg. Chinese, Japanese and Korean need the PHP intl extension, which most hosts have.

Yes. The rename panel lists every file that will be renamed, and Show exact database changes lists every post, custom field and setting that will be updated. Bulk rename has a dry-run preview that shows the final names, and WP-CLI commands accept --dry-run.

Media → Media Rename → Filename Audit scans your library for camera names (IMG_1234, DSC_, PXL_), screenshots, random hashes, numbers-only, non-Latin and very short or long names. Each file gets a suggested name from its alt text, title or post, which you can edit. Tick the files and click Rename selected.
