I added these to the upload_image.php so that images rename on upload.

//Random Number

$rand = rand(100000, 999999);

//Date-time
$ndate = date('YmdHis');

//File Extension
$file_ext = ( strrpos( $userfile['name'], '.' ) ) ? substr( $userfile['name'], strrpos( $userfile['name'], '.' ) + 1 ) : '';

//Actual name for image
$userfile['name'] = $ndate.'_'.strval($rand) . "." . $file_ext;

It works great except that if you save an old content it deletes all the old images that were uploaded before the addition.

Any suggestions?

Just a follow up. I noticed it does that when you have a fieldx for a gallery and not on the main image.

Hey guys my bad was doin the renaming in the wrong place. I'll just post my hack in case anyone needs something similar.

In plugins/cck_field/upload_image/upload_image.php around 400-500 line:

After: 

$ImageCustomName = $userfile['name'];

Add:

$rand = rand(100000, 999999);
$ndate = date('YmdHis');
$file_ext = ( strrpos( $ImageCustomName, '.' ) ) ? substr( $ImageCustomName, strrpos( $ImageCustomName, '.' ) + 1 ) : '';
$ImageCustomName = $ndate.'_'.strval($rand) . "." . $file_ext;

So the result will be on each uploaded image the name will change to something like this: 20140702105640_272184.jpg

It has date time and a random number. This way you will never have issues with duplicate image names ;)
