Hi Folks

Hoping a big brain has an idea here.

I have been given the task of tagging 40000+ images in lightroom were talking minimum of 5 tags here that will be permenant and travel if the images are moved programmes etc.

I know that once a tag is created it can be resued but folks everything is pretty different and looks to take me weeks at present forecast

Is there a programme i can run them all through to auto tag then import into lightroom so that they will be picked up and if someone searches for a certain term they will appear.

Looking for small cost and a hero of the week suggestion.

Thanks folks.

Answer this-  Which VERSION of "Lightroom" are you referring to?

 

In Lightroom-CLASSIC, you can add Keywords (tags) in the [Keyword] panel, then 'Save' the keywords to file metadata by selecting the photos (all 40,000 if you wish) and pressing [Ctrl+S]

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .
