Title: Categories 2 Keywords
Post by: axel.hennig on May 12, 2019, 04:37:21 PM
Hi everybody,

I tried to "copy" some of my categories to Keywords using a Metadata Template (see screenshot2). It worked, but not completely (see screenshot1).

I don't understand why all child categories are correctly transformed to Keywords, but parent categories are not transformed.

Regards,
Axel

This variable returns all categories assigned to your files, including data-driven, @Keywords and more. This is most likely not what you want.
Have you tried the variable first in the VarToy to see what it returns? Always helpful.

I recommend to check out the article from Ferdinand on this topic:
