Question

Adding date metadata from folder name

I'm new to Bridge and I have no clue about it, since this is the first time I use it.
Therefore I'd appreciate a detailed instruction - thank you! 😄

 

 

I have a big folder with many sub-folders which contain photos. The folders containing the photos are named after the date when the photos were taken, in this format: YYMMDD (e.g. 221026)

 

Now I want to replace the (wrong) date metadata of the photos with the date from the folder name, using some automation/script.

 

 

How would I do that?


Thanks a lot in advance!

Search on here for scripts that can do something similar, be aware that there are multiple date fields in an image file metadata. You might want to use DateTimeOriginal for this.
