Normal topicRenumbering image files based on disc number

I have a feeling I already have the means to do this but, if I do, I can't lay my hands on the process.

Perhaps you can help.

I have a set of 240 CDs. They are separated into 10 "boxes" which are categories defined by the record company. Each CD is in a separate folder & each folder has an image file.

Originally, I just had 10 image files, one for each "Box" so that each CD for Box 1 had the same image in each CD folder.

Now I'd like each cover image to include the disc number.

The cover images are now named as follows:

Box_01_000_Cover.jpg

through to

Box_10_000_cover.jpg

So, is there a way for me to replace 000 with the disc number, have you already given me the means to do that, or do you need to write something new?

For the record, there is only one image file in each of the 240 folders & they all correspond to the format shown above.

Thanks. 🙂

I have no idea if it was done in the past. It was faster to write it than to look:

Download : https://2manyrobots.com/actions/Renumber-Box-Set-Images-in-Folders.zip

Load up all or part of the box set; select the files and run the action.

btw: I don't care what the jpg is named as long as there's only one per folder and the name contains _000_

I've only done a little testing ... so test.

Yes, I was more thinking if it were possible "out of the box" & whether I'd done it before (using "Set" or something similar) but I'm guessing not or you'd have just said to do that, so thanks so much, I'll check it shortly & feedback. Very much appreciated.
