Is it possible to force a gallery style (all thumbnail) for the "most popular" or "keyword" galleries? I don't have access to gallery tools when viewing the gallery.

You force the style via a url link that you'd put in your custom navbar, or elsewhere on your site.

Like on my site http://www.moonriverphotography.com/ I force traditional

Ah sorry Andy. I've been using the Advanced FAQ religiously but I somehow missed forcing it via url. That solution works for me, many thanks!

Ah question though. While this works great, it also changes the "default" user style from what other people see in other galleries. So supposing people are using smugmug style in a gallery, click on popular photos (which displays in thumbnail), then return to another gallery, the style stays at thumbnail. This is the normal behavior?

Another question on these galleries, does the search box revert to the smugmug search instead of a private search?

Yes, for that search it does.

Like on my site http://www.moonriverphotography.com/ I force traditionalUnfortunately this method from Dev doesn't work if you have the "most popular photos" displayed on the home page of your site and your visitor clicks on a photo ...
They have the Style: dropdown in the top right corner.
eg. http://www.lsvphotos.com/popular/11/81825839#81825839
http://lsv.smugmug.com/popular/8/132253348#132253348

Is there any way to hide that ?

Thanks

Andrew
