Hi All

About a year ago, I started using the folder storage structure 'Year - Month - Date' for all my images imported into Lightroom, and I am very happy with the format. However, all my images taken prior to this - which also exist in my LR catalogue - are stored in all manner of folder names; when I wasn't so familiar with what LR could do for me!!

Is there a way I can get LR to reorganise these files into the 'Year - Month - Date' format I am using now...?

Long shot I know... but thought I'd ask nonetheless.

I have recently stumbled upon the same problem. I know if I import from disk and "move the files to a new location' I can get the 'yyyy-mmm-dd' folder structure created by LR. However, If I export 'jumbled' images, I lose either the LR adjustments or the or the disorganised folder structure. I would like a way to preserve the LR adjustments and reimport the files into this or another catalog.
So, short of manually doing this in LR from a filter by date or reimporting, I know of no other answer.
