Hi I'm thinking of adding Dynamic Albums based on keywords
my current site is www.farhan-tauheed.com

I would like to add a separate grid for "Browse by Category"

The problem is currently I redirect directly to the photopage when the user clicks on the album cover. in the photo page the user can use the slider to view all of the images in the album, I would like to use the same approach with Dynamic Albums and let the user use the slider to view the images inside the album. is it possible? which files I would like to change. can I make such changes with my CSS and HTML knowledge or I have to go into PHP and backend stuff?

please help

I don't understand what you are after. If it is specific to the Xtreme theme I might not be able help out but if you give a user story I might be able to understand what you are after.

I have a related issue: Keyword albums work great.. then when I click on an item thumbnail in the keyword album I get the photo page with the microthumbs on the right. But!! the links on those microthumbsgo to the the item in its parent album so I lose the keyword album. Is there any way to get to photo page that retains the links to the keyword album?

X_treme theme

try one of the keyword albums on this: to see what I mean.

I can't speak for the Xtreme theme, but Matrix theme has the following option (see png attachment) - if it's not available for your chosen theme you'll either have to hack the matrix theme to see how it's programmed and hard-code the same option into Xtreme, or choose a different theme.

I don't believe extreme was fully updated for 2.3

I Updated some modules and activated some others and its all ok now. One of those things that's very frustrating cause you don't quite know what did it.
