We all upload files to our WordPress sites almost every time we want to publish a new post. WordPress manages your uploaded files and gives you some options when it comes to editing and deleting your items from your media library. Renaming the files you have already uploaded without having to use a FTP or SSH client is not as easy as it should be. Thanks to these 3 plugins, you can rename your WordPress media faster:

Media Rename: this plugin allows you to change the name of your files after you have uploaded them to your WordPress site.

Media File Renamer: allows you to rename your media files by updating their titles. It also updates their links in your posts. It is not always perfect but could be a time saver when it works.
