1. Search engine optimization: I want to search only for album name, owner and/or year... not summaries, descriptions, comments, etc. Can I do this?

2.I am using the Matrix template. After logging in, I would like the sidebar to show search, then the actions block (add album, add items, etc), then the list of albums. I can't seem to make this happen even if I try the "classic" theme.

Help??? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Edit album theme tab, there you will have "block to show in the sidebar" you can add, remove and change the order of the items,

Apparently if you are logged in as the admin, you cannot see changes you make for users. I wanted to move the menu (where you add items, etc.) to the space below the search. It works when you edit within the theme page, BUT not for the admin. Seems the admin menu must always be where it is. Not a problem... I am the admin so I can work with what I have.

I have asked about customizing the search before to no response... is there anyone out there who knows how to customize the search to search ONLY by album name, owner name and date and show only the albums (not the individual photos) that match this search???? It has to be possible. Help?????????
