P: Ability to search Album and Folder names

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

I have not found a way to search for FOLDER names, or ALBUM names in the new Lightroom CC. If a person has nested folders or nested albums there should be a way to search for keywords in the folder or album names.

Four years later and you still can't search album titles.

It's just a fundamentally broken process to think that all of the BASIC functionality from LR classic really needs to be individually asked for in community forums so that it can be ignored.

It's a fundamentally broken process to have 2 codebases where the implementation promotes such ideas as "text searching through a list of album names is a 'classic' feature, a feature more suited to 'old school' users not modern 'cloud' users"

We're approaching a decade now of this split and Adobe needs to step up and start and finish and initiative to fix the fundamentally broken gaps in functionality between classic and CC.

The only way to do that is to not have 2 codebases. Two codebases is going to equal a decade of missing functionality for your users.

Ok, mea maxima culpa, you can search albums in the universal search bar. I was wrong.

Still think the dual code bases is a bad idea.

I can search but nothing will happen, even if it finds the photos it's still not going to tell me the location of the album. 

Are you talking mobile or desktop version? No way in the mobile Android version.

Also want to chime in that I've been waiting for this feature for years on mobile. 

it kind of works on LR desktop now. It shows album names most of the time and I can use Album: to prompt a search. 

But on mobile there is absolutely no way to find albums by a keyword. It's a real hassle, I also nest folders to keep things organized and I have over a hundred albums. It's way too much to scroll through each time.

8 years later it is still not possible to search album titles ... How can this be such a difficult task? Skip the superfluous AI stuff and concentrate on basic functions please.
