To configure this feature, edit the custom field, and enter the file name you want to enforce on all uploaded files into SmartSimple, and save your changes.

The file name restriction feature is [[Variable processor|variable processor]] compatible for both [[Custom Field Type: Link – Single File|single file]] and [[Custom Field Type: Link – Multiple Files|multiple file uploads]]. Enforcing a file name does NOT affect the file extension.
When users upload their files, they will be presented with a message informing them that their files will be renamed per the naming convention you have specified:

When ''File Name Restriction'' is configured, multiple files uploaded to the same field will be named with version numbers. If your ''File Name Restriction'' is set to ''filename'', the first file uploaded will be renamed ''filename'', the second file uploaded will be renamed to ''V_1_filename'', etc.
Note that any spaces in file names specified will be replaced by the underscore character ("_").
