 * I’ve enabled Enable IPTC/EXIF Mapping when adding new media and put in some rules
   such as Att. Tags mapped to 2#025 Keywords but the mapping isn’t done at upload
   or manually click mapping.

 * Thanks for your report. There is no bug or other MLA problem I am aware of that
   would cause your mapping not to work. The most likely causes of the problem you
   are experiencing are 1) the data you want is missing from the image file or in
   another IPTC/EXIF variable, or 2) the rule(s) you have defined have some small
   problem and are not doing what you expect.
 * If you can give me more information I can try to reproduce the problem. First,
   can you post a link to one or more of the image files you are uploading and trying
   to map from? Second, can you tell me all of the settings you have made for the
   rule(s), such as your “Existing Text” keep/replace setting? Finally, can you 
   try using the Bulk Edit feature to map one or more of your image files:
    1. Navigate to the Media/Assistant admin submenu screen.
    2. Check the box to the left of one or more items.
    3. Select “Edit” from the “Bulk Actions” dropdown control, then click “Apply.
    4. Click the “Map IPTC EXIF metadata” button in the lower-right corner of the Bulk
       Edit area.
 * When the bulk mapping completes, what does it say to the right of each completed
   item? What does it say at the bottom of the display, e.g., “Complete, Unchanged,
   Succeeded, Failed” counts?
 * Any additional details you can provide will be very helpful. Thanks for your 
   interest in the plugin.

 * It has been over a month since my last post in this topic. I assume you have 
   found a solution to the problem.
 * I am marking this topic resolved, but please update it if there is anything else
   I can do to help.
