Mais il faut quand même avoir réfléchi au nom de l’image avant le téléversement, c’est mieux. Dommage qu’on ne puisse pas changer le nom du fichier en cours de route, même si c’est compréhensible pour éviter les liens cassés. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/62899955c83883676b8318f089147c58e39f920d87482fe5d6d26ff97729551d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple et efficace](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-et-efficace-176/)󠁿 [diocesegrenoblevienne](https://profiles.wordpress.org/diocesegrenoblevienne/) February 16, 2022 Le plugin joue entièrement son rôle. Il est très facile de renommer ses fichiers. Il ne faut pas oublier que c’est automatique, et donc que ça se fait pour tous les fichiers… Si on veut éviter de renommer un fichier en particulier, il faut penser à désactiver le renommage avant, mais ça se fait en un clic.
