           Summary: Digikam custom filename format from date and time
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.7.3-beta2
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: RESOLVED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: craig kde org


Version:           0.7.3-beta2 (using KDE 3.4.1 Level "a" , SUSE 9.2 UNSUPPORTED)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4 (pre 3.3.5 20040809)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8-24.14-default

When uploading images, digikam has the option "Add camera provided date and time". Would it also be possible to specify the format of this? The default appears to be "YYYYMMDD-hh:mm:ss", but I'd prefer "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss" (which makes it easier to see the separate date parts). This option may be a little too much to add to the GUI, but perhaps add a parameter to the config file of the format:

    customDate=%Y-%M-%D %h:%m:5s

...or similar?

it is possible to customize the dateformat manually. try entering:
photo-%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S in the prefix edit line (turn off "Add camera provided date and time"). For additional customization read the manpage of strftime
