Renaming subfolders by using the main folder

Postby rvt12345 » Thu Nov 15, 2018 2:01 am

Hello

I was wondering if there was a way, to have BRU automate a process where it takes the name from the main folder and then apply that name adding a 0 or 1 at the end to all the subfolders within that folder and the reapplies that to the folders within the subfolders and so on.

Ideally I would like to have:

1. Main Folder -> 1.1 <Subfolder name> -> 1.1.1 <Subfolder name>

I can get BRU to rename the folders, but I have to enter each folder manually and then apply the changes, and I have around 700 folders to go through, so if there is a easy workaround that would be much appreciate.

Please ask if my problem isn't making any sense.

Best regards

Hi, I think it can be done by using Javascript in BRU, however JavaScript requires a commercial license. If you have a commercial license I can try to make a script for you.

That would be very much appreciated, I can't imagine us not having the commercial license and as far as I recall we have the option to add Javascript down on the left hand side. I will check monday so you don't spend your time in vain.

Hello again Admin

As suspected we have the commercial license with the option to add in Javascript, so if you have the time I would like you to give the script a try.
