# wrong image tags

 * Hi,
    I use nextgen plugin together with the Lightroom plugin. LR galleries are
   exported well. I use keywords in LR. When I look at the gallery images in wordpress,
   several wrong tags have been added to the images. When I clear all tag field 
   and import the metadata, some images are assigned tags which I actually added
   in Lightroom, other images get wrong tags, probably from earlier uploaded galleries.
   Checking under the menu Gallery image tags I see a huge list of tags. I think
   this might cause (part of) the problem. Is there a way of clearing this list?
   What causes the wrong assignment of tags? I do need my images to display the 
   correct tags. I have image sizes set to empty fields in wordpress, except for
   the thumbnails. Please help me on this.

 * WordPress’ Media Library Assistant does a good job in assigning my IPTC-keywords
   to image tags. They can then be mapped to caption an displayed in an image. Very
   nice, especially if you have photos from flora or fauna and need to display easily
   their names under the image.
    Nextgens image tags can be deleted from the Main-
   image-tag screen, but only 1 by 1, this is hopeless with many tags. Is there 
   no quicker way?
