Title: keywords missing
Post by: trabuco on January 23, 2020, 15:33
Hi.

Some of my keywords are missing on SS.

Is it normal?

Sometimes SS removes keywords that it decides aren't allowed. Sometimes they are the most obvious innocuous keywords for the image. Sometimes they are keywords that SS suggests. They don't actually tell you which keywords they remove, so you sort of need to watch it in the submission process. I think it is how they went about "fixing" the problem of people spamming the titles to get top search position. For example for an image of barbecue chicken. Keywords are "barbecue chicken", "grilled chicken" "cooked chicken" "chicken". SS removes the keyword "chicken"

It's not my case I think. The keywords were random and were removed 6/50 in several pictures, the same number.

f.i. In a winter landscape

outdoors,winter and four more, all relevant.

They were not repeated. Maybe winter in title.

Wide panorama view of a row of evergreens and other trees, covered in fresh snow from a Winter storm. Peaceful, quiet open space in front and sky. Copy Space

Not missing in mine. What were the four words? Like Outdoor and outdoors? Plural and singular? Not that, that should matter, but just wondering.

No I'm not missing words that I know. I don't have time to look through thousands of images, even if they did change words. Just thinking, wouldn't snow and trees and landscape always be outdoor?  ;D I can see words I should have included as well.

They were deleted with no reason. Same number in several different pictures.
Different words but the same number of keywords.

Looks like a bug.

Have copied again all words for the pictures I have seen. I'm not going to revise more than the last batch, just 5 o 6 were wrong in 40, I think.

Sorry I misread, I thought the same keywords from reading your first message with examples.

I always loose a few keywords with SS.
I tag my pics with exactly 49 keywords each (in LR).
After uploading I often discover that my SS pics only have 45 oder 46 keywords.
Seems a normal policy with SS.
