Keyword, CS2 & smugmugs bulk keyword???

Cindy

Hi everyone. Smugmug help suggested I post my question here. Although I add keywords in CS2 & they are there after uploading... I’m finding I have to spend a lot of time customizing them in smugmugs bulk edit tools.

For example in CS2 keyword file info I may put in tigers, football, mark twain, 61 zach, utterback, football, 20051008
CS2 automatically separates them with comma's rather than "".
After uploading I have to go in and put "" around anything that should be one keyword such as "61 zach" "mark twain" "20051008"
Is there a simpler way to get the keywords right from the get go in CS2 so that after uploading they'll work & display properly so I don't have to spend so much time re-keywording them?
If I add the "" around the words in CS2's keywording will they remain together properly in smugmug? If so does this create any negative effects in other software I might need to be aware of before I start adding "" in all my CS2 keywords.

How does everyone else get around this quickly, successfully & painlesslessly? :-)

Thanks,

Cindy

I'd sure like to know how others deal with this... Anyone???

Until smugmug makes a change, you'll have to put quotes around your multi-word keywords. I don't like it either.

Thanks for the link. I'd searched threads but hadn't found this. Will move my conversation there.
