SUMMARY
the exif functions reading the date and time create dates like this 2025:04:21 15:26:12 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  rename a photo 
2. use the function to grab EXIF date and time to use in the file name 
3. apply 

OBSERVED RESULT
dates do not show up in the correct date format with the "-" separator, instead they show the date like it is a time format.

EXPECTED RESULT
Use separator "-" for dates and separator ":" for time stamps.

This is probably a very simple fix but I do not know where to change the built in functions. 

This is on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, KRename 5.0.2 and the latest KDE and Plasma.

On Reddit I found out that this seems to be  intended as the Exif standard uses ":" as separator for the date format. 

So this can be closed - it is not a bug. Rather a suggestion to add a possibility for the user to adjust the functions formatting of the data as it shows up in the file names. 

Thanks, p.
