New products meta-data not installing

For the last several days, anything I have bought and installed through DIM, DAZ Studio is not importing the metadata automatically. I open DS expecting to see the blue highlights for new products and I get no highlights. Furthermore, when I navigate to the new product, it does not have the metadata tags present. I have to go to "Re-Import Metadata" to get it to work. Is there a setting I am missing that will import the metadata automatically? This has only been an issue since installing the most recent DAZ Studio update (to 4.6.2.120)

Thankfully, I can get the metadata in by using "re-import", but I shouldn't have to do that... I never did before.

    Did you install PostgreSQL, which was added with the latest DS 4 beta? if so DIM will be inserting the metadata into its database, not into the Valentina database used by 4.6.2.120, and you will have to update the metadata manually, as you have been, for the production build.

    That is precisely what I did. Thanks for the answer. It's not a big deal to do the manual things, so I'm not going to uninstall the PostOgreSquirrel, or whatever you called it :)

It's not a big deal to do the manual things, so I'm not going to uninstall the PostOgreSquirrel, or whatever you called it :) I myself think this method for both is best. This way I know for a fact all my metadata has been updated. Open Beta, new files are there, open Release Build, Import and I'm 100% in step with zero guessing if it all matches. The fact I did it gives me that I know for sure thing I so enjoy.
