Customizing the Keyword-Result Page?

Hi.

I just realized that my keyword-result pages look everything but great. First of all I would like to get their gallery style changed to Smugmug now it seems to be Journal, but that change is not possible as the option is missing in the customize-menu.
Does anyone here know if there is a way around that?

The other thing that is mildly annoying: it seems all the photos in this result page are shown with their keywords placed below the titles and the captions. Well this would not be a big issue...if titles and captions were shown, but they are actually blacked out - no matter if I am logged in or not. Fun fact: for photos that have neither a caption nor a title in "site owner view" the notification to add a title and caption is shown...

An example for this not so good (mildly speaking) result page is to be found here: Lilleulven.com/keyword/oslo

So please could someone tell me how to fix this (except for removing the keyword search from my website, which is not a very good option either)?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Best regards

    All the Smugmug service galleries use whatever default gallery style that you set. You'd have to change
    the default to Smugmug style, then in every gallery change their individual styles to what you want.

    Hi Allan.

    Thanks :)

    Do you happen to know how one changes the default style?
    The information that I have found about it so far is "you cannot change the default style" (now I have to cross my fingers that the default style is not set by those Site Designs or I will have created a hell lot more work for me than I wanted :D)

    Thanks for your help in advance

    With a gallery open:
    > customize
    > content and design
    > hover over the photos in the gallery and click the wrench icon (on all galleries)
    > select the default style at the top of the dialog box.

    I'm guessing all or most of her galleries are set to default. This above will allow setting one specific
    gallery at a time to something other then default. This would be used to change any galleries she
    does not want the default style to a new style.

    I think to set the default site wide style is while in customize click to highlight "All Galleries" in the
    right flyout. Then click wrench on gallery box. At the top you can change the default style.

    That may be another way to get there but the steps I outlined above sets the default site-wide style. The box where I clicked the wrench icon is titled "All Galleries".

    It looks like to set a individual gallery to other then default is customize > gallery settings > appearance

    This works only for the galleries you have created yourself not for the automatic ones (keywords...)
    And no, not all or most my galleries where set to Default, they were actually set to something else than Default (all the same "something else" which now has become Default too :D)

    Thank you! This works perfectly and changes the slightly weird looking keywords-gallery into something way more beautiful as well!


    Good night (nearly 2a.m. here)
