Feature request: Year/Month/Day folder structure

NNN635616938920340678
I saw this in another posting, but it seemed a bit buried, so I wanted to create a posting specifically for this:

I would really appreciate the ability to import photos into a Year/Month/Day folder structure based on the photo date (not the import date).

Thanks,
Gene

    Gene,

    You should probably put your request into a Support Case so that you voice will be sure to be counted when the development team are planning what to include and when.

    Remember that this is really just a User to User forum and as such has informal support from some of the Phase crew. That's fine of course and may eventually deliver what you want but you stand a better chance of getting is as part of a formal request through a Support Case.

    That said the Token naming system introduced in the 8.2 release does seem to offer that capability although I have yet to test it. (Unless there is a difference between Mac and Windows - I'm on Windows.)

    Version 8.2 can do this. I use the tokens: Image Year (yyyy), Image Month (MM), Image Day of Month (dd), but there are others too.

    Further to my previous post and to confirm this one, I tested it importing to a session using a card holding a wide range of shooting dates and it worked very well indeed.

    HTH.

    This doesn't work for me reliably. There seems to be a bug where the export function does not respect the pattern established with the date tokens as described here. See my other post.
