Hi, please see attached.
I thought this is only showing my photos but testing on another account where I have friended the first account, it actually shows the same photos there also.
How can I have it so it is only showing my Recent Photos (or even the ones where I have been tagged)??
Thank you
Hi Ben,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to display the current user's recent photos from the Recent Photos module.

There are no other modules available that can do this too.

The closest thing to achieve this would be the photos widget module(http://take.ms/uj85p). However, this widget only displays in the user's own profile page.

Hi Raymond, thank you for your reply.
So how hard would it be to get that widget module to show in my dashboard?

Hey Ben,

If you really want to, you would have to template override some files for this to work.

Option 1: You will be modifying the widget to display on the dashboard. This will override the dashboard theme file.

Option 2: You can also modify the module so that only the current logged in user photos will be displayed, but this means that you can no longer use the module to display recent photos of 'All' users.

Let us know which method do you prefer.
