Compatibility Settings

Rename Media Files: Improve Your WordPress SEO includes a Compatibility tab that keeps renaming from interfering with a few plugins that handle their own file uploads. The Compatibility tab is a Pro-only feature. This guide covers each option and what it does.

The Compatibility tab in the Rename Media Files plugin

Where the settings live #

Go to WPFactory > File Renaming in your WordPress admin. The settings page is titled File Renaming on Upload. Open the Compatibility tab, which is added by Pro.

Compatibility options #

Each option targets one plugin and is off by default. Turn on the ones that match the plugins you run.

  • Buddyboss: buddyboss disables renaming for BuddyBoss profile uploads, preventing conflicts with profile and cover images.
  • Gravity forms: gravityforms fixes Gravity Forms entry exports so file upload fields continue to work correctly.
  • WPForms: wpforms fixes WPForms file uploads so submitted files are handled correctly.
