How do I add new keywords to Fallout 4 esm in FO4Edit?

[Freshmun]

I feel like an idiot but I have no idea how to use FO4Edit and I'm trying to add the uneducated reload keyword to some vanilla weapons but it won't let me add a new keyword when I right click Fallout4.esm. I wouldn't have to do this if the ECO quick modification option didn't just disappear but that's neither here nor there. Call me an idiot if you like but I've been on this for over 2 hours googling stuff and nothing has came up that would help me.

You can't, FO4 edit (nor the CK for that matter) won't let you edit Fallout4.esm and for good reasons, never touch anything in there under any circumstance

Instead, you find something you want to edit and right click > Copy as override into... and then you're prompted to select a plugin, choose the one that contains your keywords, then they will show up when you try to add item to the weapon
Remember that plugins work from top to bottom, so you can't add stuff that is in plugin #20 into plugin #10 for instance

Thanks man, I knew I probably couldn't edit Fallout 4 esm from the start. I'm gonna have to watch a tutorial on this stuff cause it looks very interesting. Thanks again!!
