Possible bug with search feature?

For instance when I am in this or any gallery:
http://photos.humansafterall.com/Client-Galleries/DJ-Times-MMC-2011/16596509_7KdtkG#!i=1250575297&k=7wahu

And I preform a search (in this case I used 'Ultra'), the search results show, but if I click on one of the found images, it returns me to the full gallery instead of allowing me to view the photo.

I assume that is not the intended result :)

    Actually, for photo results it's intended that clicking on a thumbnail brings you to the photo in the gallery. That's the way photo search currently works.
    It's different for keyword results. If you click on a keyword, it brings you to a virtual keyword gallery showing all photos for that keyword.

    It does not take me to the photo in the gallery, it takes me to the full gallery display.

    I misunderstood. Sorry about that. Yes, it is a reported issue if you set a gallery to a different gallery style, like Thumbnail. If you were to set it to SmugMug style, it should work fine.
    I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

    So the search feature is worthless unless you are using the SmugMug gallery style!??!

    Is this something that is going to be resolved?

    I have a large backlog of photos of various music artists.

    My 'master plan' was to have a searchable database of these artists once I edit in high res and upload.

    I would like to know if I am unable to do so with my preferred photo style gallery please.

    :whew:

    I know you're not allowed to give a timeline, but is there any way of knowing if it might be in the near future?
