Let īs make our life easier.
 
Hello, everyone. I am a busy teacher as all of you. I find this site very useful. The only thing I dont īt like is that when I download a worksheet it has a name like this: eslprintables7648464537. So I have to rename it to find it later. I don īt always have time to do this, so at the weekends I have to rename hundreds of downloaded worksheets. Is there any possibility to leave the name of the ws as it was uploaded, without changing it?

Hello,
I guess I have the same problem & I wish we could download the wss with there titles instead of renaming them.

It would be a great ideaSmile, but I have a feeling, that that wouldn īt be possible. Think how many worksheets there are here on the subject of "Telling the time". Where one is with that name, there couldn īt be another one with that name. Unless you want the system to ask you so many times, until there is a name, that might work...

I have adjusted my firefox to basically forcing me to type in a suitable name immediately and even on my own computer I end up naming some worksheets like "telling_the_time_ws_4". Also - I probably have a completely different system from giving names to files, than other people here. It īs adapted to my needs and logic. So even if the system suggested a name to download the file with, I would still have to change it.

As usual - just my two pence worth...

i spend half an hour a day downloading great ws and renaming them but i too have this feeling that victor has already done his best to simplify things as much as he could...

Before downloading I copy the name of the file and then just paste it to save.

However quite often I have to face another challenge: punctuation marks  | ? * / : "   in the name of a WS.

I would be very grateful if you, dear contributors, don`t use those reserved symbols in the names of your files. That would make our life much easier!

This site has been and is so useful to me, I īd never consider asking for smth like that (as it already makes our lives much easier)... how long does it take to rename a ws ??? 5 seconds maybe ? When I downloaded many ws, I renamed them every time I downloaded one, instead of having lots of ws to rename during the weekend... Maybe you could try doing that, olik-olik ? Just a thought ...

I usually rename  mine  anyway to meet my needs.  I really don īt think it would be possible at this point in time.  Think of all of the worksheerts that have already been entered and named.  Would they have to be renamed?    I fully agree with Aliciapc.

I think the site is perfect just as it is. It takes very little time to do that and in exchange you save lots of hours creating your own work.
