File (Field) Paths serial token

Question

I have an image field type configured to accept an unlimited number of values.

Using the File (Field) Paths module I have set the file name field value to [node:title].[file:ffp-extension-original]

This is fine if you upload one image because it is renamed to my_node_title.jpg for example.

If you upload several images, they are renamed to my_node_title.jpg, my_node_title_0.jpg, my_node_title_1.jpg, my_node_title_2.jpg and so on.

Is there a token I could use or create that would allow me to add a serial value rather than the default _0, _1, _2? For example my_node_title_a.jpg, my_node_title_b.jpg, my_node_title_c.jpg etc.

I'm looking at the Custom Tokens module at the moment but not having much success.

Answer 1

The problem is it starts from 0, isn't it?

If you use that for your path: [node:title]_a.[file:ffp-extension-original]

• my_node_title_a0.jpg
• my_node_title_a1.jpg
• my_node_title_a2.jpg

OR

You can use the [file:original:fid] pattern, it gives serial values but the fid increments for all the nodes, not for each nodes. I mean, if you upload 10 images to your first node and then for your second node if you upload 3 images, second node's images' names are as below:

• my_node_title_a11.jpg
• my_node_title_a12.jpg
• my_node_title_a13.jpg
