I am using albums with individual themes for a site; each album is basically a "home page" for one subject, showing all of the thumbnails. I have successfully modified the album.php and image.php files to match the site styling. My method was to start with the basic album.php file, add my nav and css. When the resulting page displays in a browser, all is well, EXCEPT that various fields are clickable/editable by the viewer!

These fields are things such as the title of the image file, the description (in image.php)- and the album description and title (in album.php)

I can't see how to disable these things.

Try logging out again. Or perhaps clearing your cookies. These fields are only editable by an admin viewing the site.

Thank you - it was the cookies having been set from simultaneous ZP admin session in another browser tab.
