P: Ability to see what Album a photo is in

[Rob.Wheatley]

Can you add in a way to see what album(s) a photo is in. You can do this with classic CC, but not the new cloud CC.

I have LOADS of photos, and after the migration from classic, lots of them are not in albums and are now heaped into on big imported album (because I used my hard drive folders to organise things in Classic.

So, now I have a big tidy-up job on my hands.

Also, it would be great if you could find all photos not in an album.

Agreed - I use a work-around similar to someone else's suggestion to use stars to note that photos are in albums.  It works for now but a simple filter as you suggested would be best.

With the August 2018 release of LrCC 1.5, Album Membership Information has now been implemented.

Hi Selondon! 

That's right! You can now access that information with Lightroom CC 1.5, which was released today. Click the ellipses at the top and choose “Check for App Updates.”

Give the new version a try and let us know your thoughts!

Yep, it's good Carissa. If we could filter (or a facet.. 'Album: none') to identify those orphans, photos not in an Album, that would be great also!

[ron zap]

I see this version allows you to see what Albums the photos are in.  That is a good start!  
What I and others that I can see wanted was to add a filter that shows photos that are NOT in an album.  Hopefully, that can be added next update.

Why is it so difficult to make this (look to the picture below):

[ron zap]

Not difficult at all to create a folder  - but you are missing the point of having a filter to find all the non-album assigned photos.  That becomes a chore is you are bringing in photos from different sources and consolidating for first time in LR

Hello, I think it would also be useful to create a collection of photos that are not part of any synchronized collection in Catalogue LR CLassic.

Argument, When the main catalog is the catalog of LR Classic, it would be easy to remove from the catalog LR CC all the photos not included in synced albums and thus lighten LR CC on the various devices, because in this case, I see the catalog LR CC as a secondary catalog for making presentations etc.

[LooselyChipped]

Agree. This is an essential improvement. Sorting photographs without the facility to see all the albums that a photo is in or the ability to see all photos that are not in any album is a nightmare I can do without.

+1 on adding a filter to permit searching for and displaying only photographs that are *not* in any album.

Also, in the Album pane, the image count appears on every album, but not on the folders. Need an image count on the folders, and need total of all images spanning all albums.

Just started with Lightroom Cc and this is a feature I need very much (also on the Android App, pls!)

The great news KLM is this is already implemented on the desktop. You'll find tags at the bottom of the Info panel. 

I would support it being added to the mobile apps too, so feel free to start a new thread for a mobile implementation too.

[Yves-CH]

Display the information panel and click on the photo, the panel updates it according to the selected photo. Click on the name of the album.

[Nerix2498870]

Thanks, but right now mobile would be indeed more useful for me. Will eventually start a thread if I find the time.

 I can't see how to do this, can you please give instructions? 

[OHK.Luke]

To filter by photo's not in an album. Simply type "Not in any album" in the search bar and select the album filter. This will work in conjunction with other filters.

I can't see what albums my photos are in on Lightroom mobile- on my phone. What am I doing wrong?
