which file is downloaded using web ui ?

[yarez0]

hi guys,

i'm testing this great app before migrating from piwigo to it but i'm wondering which file is downloaded when using the web ui button ?

my test is to backup an album from my ios device to an album, using the storage template migration
the naming convention is correct : {{{album}}}/{{y}}{{MM}}{{dd}}_{{HH}}{{mm}}{{SSS}}
the "i" button is showing the good file path and file name

but if i want to download the photo, the photo i download is named by its backup name "IMG_xxxx"

so i'm wondering, if the storage template is good, my upload folders and paths are correct, the file is named correctly everywhere in the folder structure, which file is downloaded ? can't find anywhere the IMG files

thanks

When you upload a file, the name it has at that time is stored in the database as the original filename. If you download the file from the webui that's the name it gets given.

Yes

know why ? i wanted to use the storage template to automatically rename all my files but if the download option give them another name it's useless

have to upload / auto rename / delete from album / re upload with the storage template name from the library path
