Beschreibung

A user suggests the following:

Is there a way to fix the filenames for emailed PDF reports? Matomo defaults to the file name of (for example) "Report abc Website - March 18 - April 16, 2022.pdf" but this makes it impossible to list reports chronologically when they are in alphabetical order.

If archiving PDF reports from Matomo, the problem is severe enough that I would classify it as a bug.

Matomo should be using international ISO 8601 dates by default, i.e. "Report for abc Website - 2022-03-18 to 2022-04-16.pdf". Using "Year-Month-Day" allows sorting the archived PDF files chronologically in alphabetical order. The ability to generate custom report titles (such as "Report for abc Website" instead of "Report abc Website") is a much-needed feature for Matomo.

EDIT from matt: proposed to use Report for URL Website - YYYY-MM-DD to YYYY-MM-D2 - $Translated_Date_string so we still have the nice date, but first have the ISO date.

Research-Richtung
The issue proposes changing the default filename format for emailed PDF reports to include ISO 8601 dates so that files sort chronologically. The relevant code is likely in the Matomo core or the EmailReports plugin, specifically in the file naming logic. Look for files that handle report file names, such as in matomo/plugins/EmailReports or matomo/core/Report. The proposed format is 'Report for URL Website YYYY MM DD to YYYY MM DD $Translated Date string'. No linked PRs or assignees, so the implementation is open for contribution. Start by inspecting the existing filename generation in the EmailReports plugin and modify the date format to use YYYY MM DD while preserving the translated date string.
