Cannot find Data Mining Fields in IPTC Info or Template
« on: September 19, 2024, 02:55:17 PM »
For the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this.

I see no option to add the Data Mining field in the prefs for either dialog as it appears in the blog post from Sept 3rd.

Am I missing something simple & apologies if I am.

Thx

Hi Andrew,

Make sure you are running Photo Mechanic build 7765. Now go to Photo Mechanic's Accessibility Preference page. Click the Metadata (IPTC) Info button in the Customize section. Scroll down to the bottom section of the list. The Data Mining option is above the Getty Images section. Check both boxes and then click the OK button.  You can also click the Restore Defaults button to add the Data Mining field and any other missing fields.
You will need to do the same thing for the Metadata Template. Just click the Metadata (IPTC) Template button and then click the Restore Defaults button.

Best regards,

--Bob

Ah - I had not upgraded and didn't realise I was on old build.

My bad sorry for the bandwidth.

Thx
