Title: Meta tags, one computer, two users
Post by: mpost on February 18, 2015, 08:01:56 am

While on the road my partner and I are only using one MacBook with our own catalogues.
My question is that if I add new meta tags to each of our catalogs, when we get home will the meta tags be added to the other Lightroom? It is my understanding that the meta tags are part of Lightroom, not the catalogue.

Using Lightroom 5.2

Thanks

I think I solve my own issue.  When I first loaded my partners Lightroom catalog it showed a list of all my meta tags.  After loading her catalog a couple of times, it seemed to find her meta tags so I am thinking that the meta tag library stays with the catalog.

Either way, the problem seems to have been solved

You might want to enable “store presets with catalog option” as well so each of you will only see your own presets.
