Using EasySocial Toolbar with Joomla Menu - Single Group Item

Hi Team,

Just found another issue / bug with EasySocial 1.2.10. Here is the explanation ...

Joomla Menu :
+ EasySocial » Dashboard [ url: /social ]
+ EasySocial » Groups [url: /socialgroups ]

- Enable the EasySocial Toolbar module (external module, not the inline toolbar)
- If I click the "Groups" inside the toolbar, I will get an url /social/groups ; still acceptable but seems the Group menu routing is not working with the toolbar.
Item's url within the group page:
++ A Group : url /social/groups/item/1-groupa
++ B Group : url /social/groups/item/2-groupb
++ C Group : url /social/groups/item/3-groupc

Actually, I expect something like below... seems the group dashboard menu is NOT working with menu routing)
++ A Group : url /socialgroups/item/1-groupa
++ B Group : url /socialgroups/item/2-groupb
++ C Group : url /socialgroups/item/3-groupc

Then, I want to make a special homepage (theme, module display, etc) for group B, i've done below setup in Joomla's menu
Joomla Menu :
+ EasySocial » Single Group Item >> ES's B Group [ url: /group-b-homepage]

after i've done above menu setting, i expect the ES will auto route the B Group's url to /group-b-homepage , and it works... however, all other groups also being routed, like this...
++ A Group : url /group-b-homepage/item/1-groupa
++ B Group : url /group-b-homepage/item/2-groupb
++ C Group : url /group-b-homepage/item/3-groupc

The result of A/C group is unexpected. which B Group's url is as still ok but I still prefer below result. Seems the "EasySocial - Single Group Item" overrides all existing menu routing, and the original "EasySocial » Groups" menu routing is not working.

I assume the result should be like this: (since only B group have mapped with a Joomla's menu)
++ A Group : url /socialgroups/item/1-groupa
++ B Group : url /group-b-homepage/item/2-groupb
++ C Group : url /socialgroups/item/3-groupc

ISSUE/BUGS:
(1) IF I have enable the menu item "EasySocial » Single Group Item" for any single group, it overrides the original url from the toolbar routing /social/groups , for all other groups item also.
(2) the menu routing for "EasySocial » Groups" never works.

I expect it is a bug?

Please advise and thanks.
