Moving folders in Catalogue and retaining keywords
So I use two main drives for all of my work [commissioned, personal, films etc]. I have a drive for the current year [2016] and then a Work Archive folder for all previous years.
I use Catalogue to reference all of my work. I pull in the reference folders. So for example -
Work
-Commissions
--Feb 2016 - British Airways
---RAW files/FinishedImages/Finished Ads
I have this same folder structure in my Catalogue and then I keyword everything like what format it was shot on and the location, county et al
My question is -
When I move those folders from my working hard drive to my work archive folder then I will get the exclamation mark because the folder is missing. I then can right click and 'locate' the folder.
That's all fine but the folders stay in my work folder and don't move to my work archive folder
I could just import the folders into my work archived folder but then I won't have all the keywords that I have individually put on each image.
Any way to set this up so it moves into the work archived folder with the keywords attached?
Thanks

What happens if you select your root folder, then right-click and select Synchronize… ? 0 -
Unfortunately it doesn't do anything. ☹️ 0
