I posted this in Theme Dev - But I think its the wrong place. Please excuse the double thread.

Good morning all,

I am looking for some assistance/information on how to change the linking structure of G2. I am also wanting to ask a question about 'Gallery Information"

First question.

Using the Carbon theme, G2 linking system works like this.

Album image opens album with all images. Clicking a single image opens the image with smaller thumbnails to the right. For example.

Album
http://202.45.154.22/~models/gallery/main.php

When Clicked, you get this screen
http://202.45.154.22/~models/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=18

When you click an image you get this screen (note thumbnails on the right)
http://202.45.154.22/~models/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=12

What I am wanting to do is bypass the middle link, so it goes this this:

Album
http://202.45.154.22/~models/gallery/main.php

Image
http://202.45.154.22/~models/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=12

Is it possible to modify G2 to allow this?

Additionally, is it possible to replace the information on the final link (above), in this case image file name and date, with the GALLERY description?

Thanks in advance.
John

Google is wonderful

Would you believe I spent the best part of yesterday searching for the answers to my question

Thanks for the links, I appreciate it.

Would you happen to know how to put the Album description on the photos instead of the photo description?

Thanks
John

I have looked at the code for the older versions of G2, Would someone be able to assist me with the lastest version of G2 (2.3.1)

Im pretty good at coding, but I cant translate the old code changes to the new.

I wish I had time to dig into it. I'm not a programmer, just a technical guy, tinkerer and "hacker by trial and error".

I'd have to spend a lot of time doing trial and error.
