Suddenly I can not add keywords to my imported shots. When I hit enter, no little flag appears. Any ideas, people?
Thanks.

I guess you are referring to thumbnail badges (the tiny black and white icons on the Library image).

Select an image in the grid of the Library and right click.
On the Pop up, right at the bottom of the list choose "View Options". In the section "Cell icons" ensure that Thumbnail Badges is ticked.

In the right hand panel, open the "Keywording" panel. If you have LR6.1 or LR CC2015, ensure that against "Keyword tags" the side box reads "Enter Keywords" Click the very tiny arrows to the right of the box to change the entry if necessary.
Click in the keyword space and it will change to white. Enter your keywords using a comma as a separator and when done press the enter key. If the panel remains white, press Enter a second time. The keyword(s) should now be recorded and the image in the grid should now carry a keyword badge.

If this fails to work, or you have an earlier edition of LR, please repost here.

Well there is NO doubt that Searcher is back and with gusto no less. As usual when Searcher has weighed in and there is no need for further input. Once again, SO glad you are back in the saddle. ;)

I now have flags. Thanks. Any idea why it got unchecked?

I think LR CC2015 is riddled with irritating bugs, many connected with the graphics card interface. There has already been an update since the 2015 version was published, and it probably won't be long before the next.

Agree completely - glad he is back and was missing him. He helped me save my entire portfolio a while back - undoing something the manual said was impossible. Still don't know how it worked but it did.

Welcome back Searcher.
