Hello Andrew,

Sorry but I don't really understand you here. The gif that you sent is animating too fast and I really can't view the difference. Can you please highlight the area that you are trying to change?

album-default.jpg - this shows what the default album page when viewed by the owner.

album-with-cover.jpg - this shows the same default album page, but with the owners cover container (class="es-cover-container") included that is displayed on the profile page.

Just trying to see if there is a relatively simple way of including the container in the ablum view as by default the page just shows a title "owners album" which from a UX perspective is not very intuative. Having the cover still visible will really help viewers understand they are still on the person profile.

Hope that makes sense!
cheers
Andrew

Hello Andrew,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Ah, okay I get the bigger picture now It could be possible but if you are viewing your own albums, I don't really think it makes sense to display your own profile stuffs at the top because if you are viewing another person's photo album, you get the 'mini headers' and this would just confuse the owner more don't you think so?

If viewing another persons photo album I still want to see their "mini header"... but when I view my own photo album the "mini header" is swapped out for a small title saying "Andrew's Albums" which from a UX/UI perspective is quite weak.

I would like to swap the "Andrews Album" title for the profile cover container. I'm sure this is possible, but I keep getting errors.

Hello Andrew,

Yes, it is possible and you just need to edit the file /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/albums/header.user.php and locate the codes below,

<?php if( $user->id != $this->my->id ){ ?>

<div class="mb-15">

	<?php echo $this->loadTemplate( 'site/profile/mini.header' , array( 'user' => $user ) ); ?>

</div>

<?php } else { ?>

<div class="mt-15 mb-0"><h3 class="h3"><?php echo JText::sprintf( 'COM_EASYSOCIAL_ALBUMS_OF', $user->getName() ); ?></h3></div>

<?php } ?>

Replace it with,

<div class="mb-15">

	<?php echo $this->loadTemplate( 'site/profile/mini.header' , array( 'user' => $user ) ); ?>

</div>

Hey Mark, this doesn't seem to work. Nothing displays in the header area now?

Ah, it looks like there's another file that you need to update too. Download the attached file and upload it into /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/profile/ and overwrite the mini.header.php file.

Thanks! I'll give it a go.

Btw, can I just say how impressed I am with the support from EasySocial... I recently swapped from using JomSocial and I couldn't be happier.

You are most welcome Andrew and Thank you for the kind compliments By the way, if it's not too much to ask for, would it be possible for you to post a review for EasySocial on JED at http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/clients-a-communities/communities/25616 ?

Thank you in advance!

Done! Added. 5 Stars all the way.

Thank you Andrew! Appreciate it very much
