Problem: NVivo sets all NCapture record columns from Twitter as Classifying and only the Tweet itself as Codable. For researchers wanting word frequencies and wordclouds from a different field, such as the hashtags, the optimal method is to (1) import into NVivo, (2) export as Excel, (3) re-import to NVivo using the Survey import tool, where other fields can be set as Open and therefore Codable.
Solution: This Jupyter Notebook tool parses NCapture files and generates a wordcloud and structured frequency table, including word lemmas, parts of speech tags, and named entities.
