CCS 2.3.2.24; PHP4
I've ripped through the docs and this forum, but can't find clear definitive
answer....
How can I change the file name of an uploaded file when it's sent to the
upload folder? Specifically strip out the timestamp portion.
Thnx.

You can change the filename in the Before Process File event. But beware,
doing this will make it likely to get a duplicate filename, and the upload
will die if that happens.
I have been successful with letting the upload filename get stored as-is,
but when I display it, strip the timestamp. I even make use of this to
display the file date/time of upload later on, when displaying the files -
just parse the filename and format it with "-" and ":" characters in the
before show event..

Modify the following line in function upload in classes.php to your liking.
$ActualFileName = date("YmdHis") . $index . "." . $FileName;
DonB is correct about duplicate names, you should check this prior to
upload.
