I'm building a site where authenticated users can create acidfree albums of their own. One aspect about the module I noticed is that when users go to create an album, the parent file default is always the first (alphabetical) album that is created, rather than .

There is a clear danger here that most users will create a whole bunch of albums underneath one instead of creating their own independent albums.

So I'd like to change the default to . How can I do this?

I've attached a screenshot to better demonstrate what I'm talking about.

Anyone?

I would like to second this. I realize that it is to differentiate Acidfree from the "image" albums, but it is still pretty annoying. Maybe if it causes a conflict there could be a condition check to see if Image's Albums are enabled.

I'm not sure what the conflict with the Image Galleries (not Albums, I think you mean) would be, but I made sure the Image Galleries module is disabled. Acidfree should respect the vocabulary-level Required setting.

I am having the same problem. My users keep adding new albums. Is there a way to restrict the user's ability to create albums?

5.x is no longer supported. However,

1) If you don't want your users creating albums, turn it off in your permissions.
2) If you don't want your users creating albums in other users' albums, turn that off in your permissions.
