Tagging people in a photo

I've uploaded a photo and was able to tag the husband and wife. However, as I am attempting to now tag their children, if I type in their names, they are not shown as options in the drop-down to select from. I've tried to enter their IDs, but that doesn't seem to work. How do I link this photo to all of the children?

    Found it! You can add their name, select "Add New" (new person), and that then shows as a broken link, and you are provided with the ability to enter the person's ID to complete the linkage. While this will work, this is not the best user experience.

    Thank you for posting in the Community about tagging a photo. We are happy you were able to get the tags added to the children. Do you have a suggestion on how to make this tagging a better user experience? We appreciate suggestions.

    Well, if one could copy the ID ahead of time, and then have that identity "auto populate" the tag when clicking the image instead of starting with "who is in this memory." Once the auto populate happens you can jump to the "Is this the person you would like to attach this memory of ...", click yes and you're done. If no ID is in clipboard or wrong ID is in clipboard (and you click no), then current process defaults.


    I'm not complaining, but since you asked, I answered.
