Title: Modify Attachments Meta Author: Vladimir Vassilev Published: 5 de enero, 2014 Last modified: 15 de agosto, 2016 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/modify-attachments-meta/assets/banner-772x250.png?rev=833232) This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/modify-attachments-meta_f4f4f4.svg) # Modify Attachments Meta By [Vladimir Vassilev](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vloo/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/modify-attachments-meta.0.2.zip) * [Details](https://pe.wordpress.org/plugins/modify-attachments-meta/#description) * [Reviews](https://pe.wordpress.org/plugins/modify-attachments-meta/#reviews) * [Installation](https://pe.wordpress.org/plugins/modify-attachments-meta/#installation) * [Development](https://pe.wordpress.org/plugins/modify-attachments-meta/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/modify-attachments-meta/) ## Description When embedding a file/image/video/something to a page, or you try to edit them in the Library, you’ll be allowed to make changes on some meta data. Currently timestamp for uploading of the file and menu order are configurable, although they are still not well validated for wrong input. #### TODO * Metabox like shown here: http://wpsnipp.com/index.php/functions-php/start-date- end-date-metabox-for-events-custom-post-types/; * Changing file name of the attachment (without the extension, of course); * Control over which user roles can edit these fields; * Validation error messages should be displayed; * Use anonymous functions, instead of worrying what’ll happen if a function is defined by someone else; * If a user types invalid input, they should be warned. Currently nothing happens– attachment is updated without updating with the wrong data. As I’m lazy as hell, I’ll need your help to think of new features to implement! Contributors are welcome on GitHub: https://github.com/vlood/modify-attachments- meta ## Screenshots * [[ * How editing date and time looks on the attachment edit page. ## Installation #### From your WordPress dashboard 1.
