If your friends send images to you, which they have tagged, those "friend-tags" are imported with the image into digikam. Often, you use different tags as your friends, so you would like to remove all those "friend-tags" from the images, you have just imported. With digikam 4.4.0, to do this, you have to: 1. go to the album, which contain the newly imported images from your friend 2. select all pictures 3. in the right side view "Captions/Tags" enable the button "Tags already assigned" 4. uncheck all checkboxes by hand (to remove the tags from the fotos) 5. "Apply" In this case it would be very handy, to have a new function: "Remove all tags of the selected images" This function could be added to the "More"-button in the right side view "Captions/Tags". (I think, there should also be a safety query "Are you sure to remove all tags from the selected images?", before removin is done. ;) Reproducible: Always
Veaceslav, This can be a job for tags Manager ? This file is not redundant with bug #348105 ? Gilles
This one can't be done in Tags Manager because it depends on Image selection from view. It may be only fit in context menu, under the Add Tags.
Thank you for the bug report. As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists. If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved.
Just tested this with digiKam version 7.1.0 (AppImage) on Debian 10 Buster Linux: I could not find an action / button to remove all tags from all selected images. So I would say, the feature request is still open. It has no priority for me, since a workaround exists.

Is there any way to call this new function in the app? I am running the 8.1.0 appimage but haven't been able to find one yet.
Nevermind, I hadn't checked the code thoroughly enough, found it! Thanks :-)
