Keyword delimiters missing

My keyword list has been OK for a long time but today I noticed that the comma and/or semicolon is missing from many of the keyword descriptions in the "Edit Keyword Captions" tool. Also, a huge number of numerical file names have shown up for some reason. The resulting keyword list was so messed up that I just deleted the content block that I had made and made the page that it was on "private" until I could go back and make things right.

My question is: Did I do something to mess this up? I am not aware of anything that I could have done to cause all the keyword delimiters to disappear.

What (and where to do it) should I do to turn off IMG file numbers so that they are not used as keywords in the future. These file numbers didn't used to be included in the keyword list.

I don't think that there is anything that can be fixed but I want to make sure that I get it right when I go back over the keywords and do them over.

Thanks for any suggestions.

    OK again...
    The keyword list that I have is looking just like it used to look. Thanks SmugMug!

    Thanks for your help Allen.
    Your friend on the other side,

    When I look at http://steveandbecky.smugmug.com/keyword I see a lot of number-only keywords plus many that look like multiple keywords strung together into one.

    I believe that smug is working on something to clean this up, don't know where it sits in the delivery cycle.
    I cleaned up my keywords a couple of weeks ago; I wasn't willing to live with the mess even if it was temporary.

    Thanks Denise.


    What is the difference between the link that you gave me and the page that I placed the keyword cloud on to? When I look at the link from the nav bar, I don't see the file numbers but when I looked at the link you provided they were visible. I made that page private yesterday because it just looked really cluttered but when I looked this morning it appeared the way it used to so I made it public again.

    BTW, I've really enjoyed playing around with the new SmugMug customization features and I eventually hope to have a blog and SmugMug integration similar to yours. What you have done is very nice and has inspired me to do more.

    The link I gave you is your full keyword list. The keyword cloud defaults to only showing 255 keywords.

    If you leave the max number blank all your keywords will show in the cloud (list style).
    Not sure what happens whit the rotating globe.
