How to Change tons of .HTML Files to .PHP Files Easily? Please help

 

You just want to change the extension of these files ?

 

Yes, just the extensions, I need to change 100,000 files and I don't want to change it one by one

 

If all your files are in the same directory than you can check out this code:

<?php

$path = "."; 
if ($handle = opendir($path)) {
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
    	$extension = end(explode(".", $file));
    	$name = explode(".", $file);
    	
    	if ($extension == "html") {
    		rename($path."\\".$file, $path."\\".$name[0].'.php'); 
    		echo "$file\n";
    	}
    }

    closedir($handle);
}
?>

PHP:

 

Of course you can also try: Total Commander's Multi-Rename Tool

How can I use this codes? I've copied all the codes and then save as a .php file, what's next?

 

I've also found this program but don't know if this is safe or not.

Just upload the file into the directory where all these files are that you want to change and then run that script.

You may get issues with security. If it throws up an error then you will need to change the permissions on the files and folder.
