P: Please add smart albums

that's not sync.  that's just the ability to manually update. a subtle but very big difference as one requires an entire 2nd step by the user. no ability to scale, no thought for the future.

which 3rd party plug in are you using?  thanks! 

@skizip Posts aren't merged to bury them... exactly the opposite in fact. If all of the votes for the same request are combined into a single thread, it shows that a lot of people want the same feature and it stands a better chance of being prioritized.

I just posted the same kind of question comment and an Admin immediately moved it here so that it would be buried instead of show up in the main feed of the forums, or as an additional search term. 

How about Adobe actually address some of these pretty simple requests instead of flagging them and moving them all to a thread that is several years old and clearly ignored.  

Even if for some reason they can't get around to adding these features, they could at least have the courtesy to actually address us.  

Instead of white washing your forums to preserve your image, how about you improve your products.  So infuriating to be treated like this by so called quality assurance personnel...

So frustrated to have seen so little growth in lightroom cloud.  if I can quick filter by keywords, cameras, etc. why not let us just save those filters as a smart album.  It'd be so simple! 

And while we're at it, why are filtering options so incredibly limited when there is so much metadata in each photo.  Can't even filter by date!  

Adobe is turning away more and more professionals.  I may be one of them soon.  

Smart Albums would be enormously helpful. Being able to create a Smart Album based on being a Pick, Rating, or Tag means we can created auto-filtering albums for our selects, images we want to submit to Stock, or images we want to put on our Portfolio Site.

It would need three key features:

1. be based on saved search criteria
2. be able to be filtered to target one or a subset of albums
3. be able to be referenced as a source in Stock, Portfolio and Spark

New to the software.  Be nice if you could save searches, perhaps in the sidebar underneath the albums.  I find myself running the same searches repeatedly and feel like I must be missing something but apparently not.    

Happy this has been merged would still be nice to hear from Adobe if this is expected behaviour
