- Hello, I want to do this so that people outside the page do not guess the names of my users’ private files. - When uploading files via Xprofile Custom Field Types, I want it to be renamed to some random name. 
 For example: I upload a file called “door.pdf” and I want it to be saved as “3685214.pdf ” when uploading.- I have been using the Xprofile Custom Field Types plugin and I love it and thank you. - I hope some help please 
- Hi Oscar, 
 Welcome to BuddyDev support forums.- The files upload by Xprofile custom field types are public. Please do not treat them as private. - It is still possible to hash/encrypt file name. - Yo may want to try this one - /** * Encrypts file name using md5 * * @param array $file file info. * * @return array */ function buddydev_cusotm_encrypt_file_name( $file ) { $info = pathinfo( $file['name'] ); $ext = empty( $info['extension'] ) ? '' : '.' . $info['extension']; $name = basename( $file['name'], $ext ); $new_file_name = md5( $name ); // limit file name to 12 characters. comment if you don't want to limit. $new_file_name = substr( $new_file_name, 0, 12 ); // update file name. $file['name'] = $new_file_name . $ext; return $file; } add_filter( 'wp_handle_upload_prefilter', 'buddydev_cusotm_encrypt_file_name' );- Please do note that it will encrypt the file name for all files uploaded via WordPress and not just ours. In next release, I will put an extra hook to allow us to it selectively. - Regards

- Thank you very much for your prompt response, I understand what you are saying. - I’ll put it to the test, but if I’m interested in encrypting the file name only for files uploaded by Xprofile Custom Field Types. I will be waiting for a soon update. Thanks for your plugins they are the best 
- Thank you Oscar. 
 Please do let me know if it worked or not?- Regards
