Two things about the search module that I have worked long and hard to find a solution to:

1. Make the search results go directly to the "all results" page, bypassing the page with the summary and only 3 pics. I'm using the Matrix theme.

2. Make the search results a dynamic album, so that visitors can scroll through with the "next and previous" navigation on the photo page. That's really confusing.

I've tried many things for #1 and referenced some of the discussion concerning it, but to no avail. Here are the references:

As far as #2, I don't even know where to start since that probably involves some pretty hardcore reprogramming of the search module that I'm not familiar with.

Any help would be really, really appreciated.

Hi sciway

I've recently being customizing gallery2 search because I needed more than the standard 1-3 results. I've put 12 results into my own site, which you can see here http://www.pureanimegallery.com and use the keyword 'avatar' which has about 60 results. Might be interesting for your point no 1.

If you are interested I have a write-up on exactly how I did that. (it takes about 3 minutes).

post back if you are interested.
