Hello,
I’ve already contact help about this, but I think they misunderstood…I’ve come from Twenty20 originally and had been uploading photos through Envato Elements since Twenty20 closed up shop. I used to be able to make a list of keywords (up to 50) in a word doc or note, copy it and then paste the whole list (comma separated) at once into the tags field, to attach all the individual words to that photo. I cannot figure out how to do this in the new portfolio system. If I have to add tags one at a time, it will take me forever. Does anyone know of a shortcut or an easy way to bulk add tags to a photo, before uploading it for approval?
Thank you in advance,
Audrey
Hi Audrey! I do it all the time via the Elements uploader so I wonder if you are submitting them differently somehow. This is what my uploader looks like.
I get to it by going to my Elements dashboard and clicking on the Upload pull down menu and then choosing Photos. Once I have the screen shown above, I just paste my list into the Tags field.
Does that help any?

Hi Marg,
Thank you so much for your reply! My uploading screen used to be exactly like yours and I was able to bulk add into the Tags box, but now my login looks like the photos attached and my edit photo screen is very different. When you click on Author Tags you can enter words one at a time, but a drop down menu also appears trying to find your word in a list. When I tried to post multiple separated by commas it didn’t work at all.
Just wondering if anyone else has found a solution for this in the new dashboard setup.
Thanks so much,
Audrey
Hmm, not sure since I’ve never seen a screen like that. If you use this link, do you still see that? (remove the spaces to get the true link)

@KingDog @BenLeong any idea why she has a different uploader than I do?

I know there was the new photo upload system for Elements but I thought that all the photo submitters were on it now. Maybe I’m mistaken. I’ll need to research

I really really hope they haven’t done away with the copy and paste a list option for keywords. 
As a fellow photographer I always hope for keyword tagging to get easier

Hi @aduguid - welcome to the Envato forums!
It looks like your account is in one of the first batches of people added to our new content system, which is currently being set up to handle all Photo item review and management.
I’ve contacted the team managing it, to find out how to apply bulk tagging in that system - it’s new enough that I don’t have access to try it out myself. Once I have more information, I’ll let you know what they have to say.
