Rename images in the whole database, not just in some places

Hey guys,

we are two devs who built a free & open source image renaming plugin (GPLv2): neoRename

Image references can live in post content, metadata, serialized options, page builder data, WooCommerce fields, custom tables. Updating only attachment metadata or post content is often not enough.

So we built a small free/open-source plugin that tries to solve this by scanning broadly and updating references where the old filename appears, including serialized data.

We wanted it to be beautiful, simple, fast, free & open source. There is a Pro version, but the free version is fully usable and does not hard-push upsells.

I’m mainly looking for technical feedback:

  • Would you trust a broad database update approach for this?
  • What do you think about the usability of the plugin?
  • Anything missing?

(I’ve checked the subreddit rules and hope this kind of useful OSS project is ok to share. I genuinely believe that the plugin is really useful.)

A WordPress Image Renamer With Bulk Renaming (Open Source)

Hello everyone,

Wanted to share what I've been working on with my colleague for the last three years full-time. A WordPress plugin series for media plugins! The first one is neoRename, for renaming images. Yes, there are still people developing WordPress plugins. No, it's not vibe coded.

A few things that make neoRename stand out:

  • Fast bulk renaming for thousands of files
  • Live preview before applying changes
  • Regex search & replace, numbering, prefixes/suffixes, case conversion, and more
  • Clean workflow focused on speed and usability
  • Modern UI instead of outdated utility-tool UX
  • Replaces references in the whole database including custom tables (no other plugin does this to my knowledge, happy to be corrected about this)

We’re actively improving it and adding more advanced automation features over time.

Everything is open source and publicly available on GitHub. Feedback, feature ideas, and contributions are always welcome.
