Problem:
Posts with image fields can be edited with front-end forms, meaning that users can change the images attached to a post. The URLs of these new images will be different, and the client wants to rename the new images so that they keep the old filename and URL.

Solution:
This requires disabling the WordPress setting to store uploads in year/month directories, and custom code to affect the filename changes.

A basic example is suggested below to use as a starting point for developing your own code: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/changing-images/#post-1236293

Problem:

I've been investigating how to populate ALT tags for images without having to do it manually via the media library every time an image is uploaded. I had thought about having a custom field that could be populated with other post data when the form is submitted to create tags that follow a consistent format.

Solution:

You can setup the image HTML tag manually, for example:
