* Media Keyword Filters

[NickiP]

Is it possible to delete manually created keyword filters for media please? I suspect there is an easy way to do this but couldn't find anything obvious in Help nor via google. I know I could just ignore them but the list of filters is getting a bit long and it would be better if I could remove them.

Thanks

Nicola

I think you are asking how to delete specific Keywords from Media records.

Try using the Search and Replace Plugin.

Enter the exact name of a Keyword to delete in the Search box top left, but follow it with a comma and question mark.
e.g. Picture,?
Select LUA Pattern Mode top right.
This allows an optional comma after the keyword to also be deleted.

Leave the Replace box empty.

On the Extra Filters tab Exclude All options except Multimedia Keyword fields lower left.

Click the Search & Replace button and check the replacement is OK.
Don't worry about any extraneous extra spaces and commas.
Click Replace several times and check each one.
When happy, untick Confirm every item found and click Replace to replace them all.

Check the final Result Set and if NOT satisfied use Edit > Undo Plugin Updates.

Repeat the above process for each Keyword to be deleted.
