Help using customFileName with Miles Johnson Uploader

I'm running the latest version of Cake 2, and using the Miles Johns Uploader Plugin. Works great so far, though I don't feel confident I set it up correctly. But that aside, let's move on.

In my Controller, when I either add or edit a row, I upload the users selected file.

Here's just a snippet of the code I'm using in my controller:

App::import('Vendor', 'Uploader.Uploader');

     $this->Uploader = new Uploader(array(

          'name' => 'formatFileName', // Name of the function to use to format filenames

  'uploadDir' => '/files/'

      ));

$data = $this->Uploader->upload($this->data['Upload']['file']);

Now, in bootstrap.php, I have the following function:

function formatFileName($name, $field, $file) {

echo "hello";

return md5($name);

}

However, the filename of the uploaded file is always the original file name.

Again, I've loaded the plugin in bootstrap with the following code:

CakePlugin::load('Uploader');

I've created a upload table in the DB, baked a controller and model for it, but I'm saving the filename, path, size, and so on to that table. Looks like the following:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `uploads` (

  `id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,

  `qarequest_id` int(11) NOT NULL,

  `name` varchar(200) NOT NULL,

  `type` varchar(200) NOT NULL,

  `size` int(11) NOT NULL,

  `filesize` varchar(200) NOT NULL,

  `ext` varchar(200) NOT NULL,

  `group` varchar(200) NOT NULL,

  `custom_name` int(11) NOT NULL,

  `path` varchar(200) NOT NULL,

  `uploaded` datetime NOT NULL,

  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)

) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=35 ;

Let me know if I need to supply any other information, thanks all!
