Hi Bram,

will we have the ability to change the name of sample packs in Freesound 2.0?

I want to change one of mine, rather than create a new one and move them all across.

Yeah, it really is a bit of a land of no return when contributing to Freesound weirdhock:

renaming files (and packs) is a bit of a problem because they involve changing the filenames of actual physical files on the hard drive. Hence, it wasn't implemented in freesound 1.0. I will try to add it to freesound 2.0, although it's a bit of a pain! smile

especially packs should be rename-able!

Bram, please don't forget about the 'rename files' option. It's crucial for me as I want to keep optimizing, cleaning and structuring my files.

File renaming is possible in freesound beta, which will become "the" freesound website next week. smile

Pack rename isn't done yet. It's completely impossible to do in freesound1, but in freesound2 it will be very easy to implement smile
