P: Filter for Likes and Comments

Why is this a no-brainer, must-have feature in 2016 and yet in 2023 we don't have it?

We already have mutliple estahblished rating systems:

1: reject, select, neutral

2: 0-5 stars

3: colors

And then there is likes in the shared online albums that don't really help.

I'm tired of manually converting likes and comments into stars.

Just enable the star rating for shared albums. Or give us a fast tool to convert likes into "select". But stars would be better as people usually like stuff more and less but still like it, which cant be expressed with a single "liked" status.

Another issue, when I'm traveling and having my originals in the cloud I can't preserve likes. Later at home I download the photos, delete them from the could and put them back as smartpreviews. This will remove als likes and comments.

So there is either no point in sharing an album before, or telling the user, don't rate anything yet it gets deleted later anyway.

Convert likes and comments into stars manually before deleting/replacing, which does not help the online user, as stars can't be seen there, from their perspective all their seletion work just vanishes after resharing as smartpreview.

Still Missing this feautre...so sad....Proofing is good, but still anoyed for old albums.

Have you tried the Collaborative Proofing tool which is still only as a Technology Preview in the Lightroom Web interface? For me even in current preview status it fulfills exactly the use case you describe. After the client proofed the pictures I get the selected ones filtered in LR web, mark them as selected and continue processing in LrC.

I don't have anything to add to this thread other than my continued astonishment that this is still not a feature in Lightroom. 

The only solution remains sharing the collection via Lightroom Classic, sending clients to the web interface of LR, instructing them to like and comment on their favorite images, and then either manually tracking down each individual photo that they liked in LR then adding some other kind of filterable attribute to them (keyword, flag, star rating) or returning to Lightroom Classic and using the archaic "sort by last comment" feature, where you still can't filter by likes and comments--all you can do is see a tiny yellow icon on the thumbnail.

To make it even better, once you open the image with the comment or like, that yellow icon disappears forever and you won't be able to tell where the liked photos begin or end. 

This could be SO useful, but in its current iteration it's just such a let down. I appreciate that there's a process for implementing new features, but I truly hope this gets addressed soon. 

Thanks @Rikk Flohr: Photography. I know it's always a juggling act. And I'm definitely not complaing about the new Masking features we just got! 

@Sean McCormack The 'right eyes' have already seen this request and it is a desired outcome. More votes are always better but vote count isn't the sole criteria for consideration and implementation of a feature. Resources, previous priorities, ease or difficulty of implementation, and other factors are also at play. There is no magic number.

@Rikk Flohr: Photography Any ideas how many upvotes it take to get the right eyes on something like this? I know I've commented and upvoted, but of all the improvements that could be done for Lightroom, I'd skip them all to have this. Doesn't need to be 'Liked by Random User', just any like at all. 

Hi,
I use Lightroom CC to send to my clients a full photo album from their photo sessions.
This way they could "like" and comment their photos, and I finally chose the photos which were liked by everyone (model / production).

It could be a super-useful function to add a "like" filter. This away we could see all the photos which were liked by the guests..

Thanks in advance

When you've Shared a light room link for clients to pick/like photos from, it only shows in activity instead of a section of its own. Light room should update this so when clients or anyone like/hearts photos it should be in a album of its on or section. How it's set up now you have to keep clicking back to the go back to the activity tab which is not productive or helpful at all. Maybe have the activity app still accessible when you click on photos so you can just click at the top to access photos. My work around now is to take every liked photo and create an album or flag it but this process is still annoying because I have to keep clicking on the activity because there is no indicator that photos are liked from the  library unless you're  on a cpu using light room mobile photos that are hearted should show that it's hearted or something in library and not just activity tab.
