Thx in advance

For each type of granite on this site, I typically upload pix into two galleries: one for the rooms in the house (“kitchen”, “bathroom”) and one for the project.

This means, if I search on something like “typhoon bordeaux”, I get duplicate photos.

How can I handle this?

Thank you SO much for posting this. It took me a while to figure the code out but when it started working, I was hoping up and down with glee!
