...I am entering a new bug report in an attempt not to confuse an issue marked as fixed in new feature requests...
This is shown in the active bug reporting form in the thread Keyword gallery missing where photo comes from but that thread is closed so I can't add comments to it. That thread is dated October 12, 2013 but it has no status.
This old thread complaining about not having a link to the original gallery from a keyword gallery is marked as fixed in the feature request forum - yet when I view photos on my site by using a keyword I am not able to jump to the original gallery. This is a very big shortcoming - keywords nicely work to show all photos wearing the same keyword but they also need to provide an entry to the originating gallery.
Here's a link to a keyword on my site from which there is no link from the photo to the original gallery - http://www.denisegoldberg.com/keyword/schoodic%20peninsula/. I am using collage landscape as the default gallery layout on my site; I expect to see the link to the original gallery in lightbox.
Here's a gallery that was built by using a keyword to collect the photos - http://www.denisegoldberg.com/Fragments/Top-13-images-2013/. This gallery is shown in journal style and it does include a link to the original gallery.
The difference here appears to be the gallery style. If the style does not support showing full caption and title it also does not show the link to the original gallery. This makes the styles other than smugmug and journal to be less useful with respect to keywords. The link to the original gallery should also be shown in lightbox.
