    Individual Keyword Not in "Keyword List"

    JClarkW Community Member

      Anybody know how to make a particular keyword appear in the list?  It contains all of my keywords (used and unused) except one -- "Italy 2009" as it happens -- even though this keyword DOES appear under "Keywording/Keyword Tags" for any tagged photo that is selected.  What did I do wrong? -- JClarkW

          You may have added it as child of another keyword. You can usually track such keywords down by following the "-" marker at the left side of the top and lower down keywords as shown below.

          Alternatively, you could type Italy 2009 into the keyword filter field. After inserting some of the characters Lightroom will filter out all non compliant keywords leaving you with only those that fit. Holding down the Alt/Option key when clicking on the top level keyword will expand the hierarchy.

            Running Purge unused keywords may help, but you may not wish to use this for other reasons. You might try editing the word, also. A space or other character could put it well out of order.
