Javascript renaming based on file content

Postby chrisjj » Wed Apr 02, 2025 12:45 pm

Is this possible? And can anyone point me to an example? None found at viewforum.php?f=11

This is for prefixing the name with a the .EML file's Date header field value.

Thanks.

We will be adding some Javascript functions for that purpose in the next release.

Soon!
The new version 4.0.0.9 will have a fileMatch function to extract info from files and then it can be applied to the file name.
