    flag by existing folder

    hhost05 Community Member

      Before I started using Lightroom, I had a "Favorites" folder where I kept duplicate copies of pictures I liked. Now, I have imported all of my pictures to Lightroom. Is it possible to get Lightroom to flag those pictures that are in the favorites folder?

          I think the only way to do that is manually

            This is what I would do (if I understand correctly, and I may not) if I were you - if the favorites folder still exists on disk, then just import it, duplicates and all, then run Relative Antics (a free plugin I wrote) to isolate their counterparts (same photos but in different folders), then mark them in whatever fashion you choose - e.g. keywords and/or ratings. When satisfied, delete the favorites folder.
