[digiKam-users] File Renaming question.

[Fifty Four]

Hi,
I am new to digiKam on Windows and this is my first question. I could not find the answer in the manual and the FAQ, which is the reason I ask here.
I have imported my photo to digiKam. I have selected the photo to rename using a metadata field. I want to change the date format from “yyyy-mm-ddThh_mm_ss” to “yyyymmddThhmmss”. I successfully used the replace modifier to remove the dashes, but replace modifier will not remove the underscore. I don’t know if this is a bug or I am doing something wrong. Please help.

I am not sure why it does not remove underscores.

I also think you should use yyyyMMdd not yyyymmdd. I think 'mom's is for minutes while 'MM' is for months
