Thankyou!

Thankyou @harishanker !!!! I tried it out and it worked!!!I’m so thankful to you. And yes re-uploading all images will take too much time and I don’t even have those images anymore. The plugin worked thanks a lot!

any updates?...

Thankyou for your reply @harishanker ! Yes I want to modify the the permalinks. I made a mistake while uploading the pictures and forgot to rename them actually. So they are not SEO optimized.

Let me make a more clear example. For suppose the image name when I uploaded was “Untitled”. Now by default the image link is

example.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/untitled.jpg

I want optimized links with keywords so I want to change the permalink to

example.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/pink-cups.jpg

I hope this would make things more clear. Thankyou for helping out! ??

A few ways to change / things you can change here, depending on what you want.

Easy way: Download a plugin (I’ve not used one before so can’t make a recommendation here, just google it!)

Hard way (no plugin): You can add a line to your config file and specify your own folder. Try this (again, unconfirmed, it’s been a while since I’ve done this): https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/change-default-wordpress-uploads-folder/

Basic change: You can remove the dates from the URL by going to Settings > Media and uncheck the “Organize my uploads into month and year” Note that I’m not sure if this will update previously uploaded images, you’ll have to test. If it does you might need to go back and re-link all the images on your site.

Either way, it’s always best to do this kind of a change right at the start of a site build.

Good luck!
