Feature request

  • Your plugin is great as is.

    But one feature I think t needs is that in the absence of a date in the exif data it should also look at the file name (many images have the date coded into the file name, e.g. 20191120_183022.jpg)

    Could you try extracting that date that way as well as a fallback?

    Alternatively if you do not want to add that feature could you please add a filter (maybe around line 85 of the main plugin class) so that I could add that logic myself without potentialy updating the image twice?

    Thanks feedback.
    That’s an interesting idea.
    I’ll try it.
    Please wait a while.

    Ver 1.04 Added filter.

    /**  ==================================================
 * Sample snippet for Upload Media Exif Date

 * The original filter hook('umed_postdate'),
 * Get the date and time from the file name when the date and time cannot be read from the EXIF.
 *
 * @param string $filename  filename.
 */
function umed_postdate_from_filename( $filename ) {

    /* Sample for 20191120_183022.jpg */
    $year = substr( $filename, 0, 4 );
    $month = substr( $filename, 4, 2 );
    $day = substr( $filename, 6, 2 );
    $hour = substr( $filename, 9, 2 );
    $minute = substr( $filename, 11, 2 );
    $second = substr( $filename, 13, 2 );

    $postdate = $year . '-' . $month . '-' . $day . ' ' . $hour . ':' . $minute . ':' . $second;

    return $postdate;

}
add_filter( 'umed_postdate', 'umed_postdate_from_filename', 10, 1 );
