Album module detail page issue

Good morning

Using 1.11.8 and latest modules

Have a Gallery with several categories, some with more than one album.
Main Gallery page is how I want it - name of Category and names of albums in that category with one thumbnail for each album.
Template is default. Using page called albumdetail as the page to view each album. Call on Gallery page is

Code: Select all

{Album categories="4,6,3,5,2" detailpage='albumdetail'} 
The problem is that when on Gallery page I click on a thumbnail to open a particular album, it opens on the albumdetail page OK and works but only shows the album thumbnails with no name of album or the instruction and return text. I have tried every combination of calls on the albumdetail page to no avail and now have {Album}. I have never had this problem before in many galleries I have done but usually don't have Categories so am wondering if this is causing the problem though I don't see how.
I have even set up individual catgegory pages and the same thing happens. I'm trying to make thing simpler for the editor so thought that an 'albumdetail' page would be better than individual category pages.
Is there a way to attach a different template to the "albumdetail' page?
Thanks

This would have to do with the Album template you use for them more than the 'page' template, I would have to see the pages and most likely the backend to help...

Hi Dr.CSS
Thanks. Site is http://mandurahwoodturners.com and
mandurahwoodturners.com/gallery for the list of galleries.
I have disabled the Gallery page in the menu, but it is active. I also have some sub pages for individual galleries just to see if it works but would rather just use the albumdetail page. I have made these sub pages disabled in the menu and not active.
If you need the backend, or any further information, just let me know.
I appreciate the help.
