ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I don't know if this is the correct place to report my bug, but I believe it will reach the interested recipient. I'm a photographer and I use Digikam latest version, 8.1.0 to select and classify my images, lately I needed to rename some files and I came across the problem that it was not possible to rename files in batch, a basic function in any program related to editing images, especially for a program as efficient as this, it seems to me more like a Swiss army knife with so many functions it has, in my opinion this is very good, because it gives us more possibilities, I therefore ask that you correct the problem in the next version. I attached a screenshot of the screen showing the error. Grateful.

Hi,

The function exists. Press F2 to popup the advanced renamed dialog in digiKam.

This is not a bug, the files are marked in red and renaming is not possible because the files are not unique in name. digiKam offers many options to make filenames unique, you could add a date option or a simple counter, such as "gess-####". The files would now be continuously renamed "gess-001", "gess-002", "gess-003" etc. There is help in the renaming dialog about possible options and modifiers.
