Suddenly getting contrib/rename_by_date_time failed to load when trying to turn this version of the script on.

It’s been working before on 5.4.0. I now tried updating to 5.4.1 to see if the script works in this version of darktable. It does not, same error. Ideas?

Run it in a terminal with the -d lua flag and see if it gives a clue in the output.

Seems to be a shortcut issue even though I haven’t edited any shortcuts. I have ctrl + alt + shift + r set for this script.

Here’s a fixed one…

rename_by_date_time.zip (2.7 KB)

Usually I use (MODULE, "shortcut") for the shortcut internal name and that works fine as long as there is one shortcut, but in this module there are 2 and I didn’t make them different.
