Is there a way to bulk name, catalog photos?

Sure, hindsight is great. But when I setup my photos, I wasn't smart enough to set up any sort of numbering system or catalog system and many of them have the same name. Is there a way to go through and, in bulk, add a separate catalog type number to every image I have uploaded so when someone is talking about a specific photo, I can easilly tell which one they mean?

Thanks

By the way, I just realized that setting the Share link to on is a very bad idea. I have all images right click protected and I didn't realize that people could still email them to each other with the share link. DOH!!!

    No, I'm sorry you can't rename them on SmugMug, I wish I had a better answer for you....

    About the best you could do is add captions and sort by them. If you are
    not using captions you can hide them with CSS.

    Is there a way that I am edit the html to have it add the filename of the photo to the description of every photo? I bet there must be.

    No, just use filenames in your gallery settings :)
