[digiKam-users] Digikam keeps ignoring my ignored tags

[Thomas D]

Hi,

I am still playing around with DK 7.2 image recognition. It is great fun.

However, I do experience one really annoying problem: DK keeps recognizing some random person (that I do not know) as a specific person that I do know and have tagged. So this random person shows up in Unconfirmed suggested as the known person.

I then tag the random person as "Ignored" and I would then expect never to see this particular image suggested as the known person again (or any other known person for that matter).

However, every time I rescan my collection with "Recognize faces", it keeps adding this random person - and the same exact image - as the known person.

In fact, this problem occurs with many different persons. 

Is this a bug in DK - or am I doing something wrong? How do I ignore a detected face so that it will never be suggested again?

Hello,

I just noticed that when I mark a face as "Ignored", for some reason it ends up in the "Unknown" tag. 

I am guessing that this might somehow be related to translation/localization of tag names. Is this possible?

The reason I think this is that some of the built-in tag names are in English and others are in Danish  (my local language). But I have configured DK to use English UI language. This is rather strange.

Below is screenshot from the People tag list. The two red circles are Danish words (Personer=People or Persons; and Ukendt = Unknown)

Is there any way to fix this?

I have 1.3k in Ignored so at some point it must have worked. Maybe before upgrade to DK 7.2?

Follow-up: 

I just tried setting the language to Danish.

Then restart DK. Then set it back to EN_us. The tags are still named with way and Ignored images still seems to end up in Ukendt/Unknown.
