Hello,

The menu item EASYSOCIAL-ALBUMS (Displays albums of the current logged in user) shows albums from all users

This is the link it points to:
index.php?option=com_easysocial&view=albums
Hello checksum,

It's actually not a bug. This was a feature requested by another user where they want to display all "albums" that are created on the site. We have two types of albums view.

1. All albums view (In other words any albums that are public are visible here)

2. Albums view (Logged in user's albums view)

Hi Mark,

What is the difference between the 2?

How can I display MY albums only (The logged in user album)

I think, there should be a menu item that display MY ALBUMS, then a link on that page to display all albums.

And this is the issue about accepting a feature from a user without it being voted first. Now we all have to deal with this feature, which is not how the previous ES was.

Hello checksum,

There's 2 menu items and 1 is called "Albums" and the other is called "All Albums"

Hi Mark,

But none of these 2 menu items show the albums belonging to the logged in user.

In 1.1, there was a menu item that would show the ALBUMS belonging to the logged in user only.

This menu item is kinda misleading:

Hello checksum,

I have applied some fixes internally and it should behave correctly on 1.2.4 If you need a quick patch, download the attached file and upload it into /components/com_easysocial/views/albums/
