1. Navigate to photo gallery
2. Create new album with description
3. Upload photos using uploader (not share box)
4. Navigate to main stream

Resilt: You can see activity about it, but it doesn't contain an album's description. To see description, user need to open photo in popup and click on "View album" (99% users doesn't know that there is somewhere interested description and they can reed it by making 2+ clicks).

Everytime I use customisation in file:
templates\ja_simpli\html\com_community\layouts\stream\photos.php

add code:

<?php echo JHTML::_('string.truncate', $album->description, $config->getInt('streamcontentlength') ); //crimson: display album description in stream ?>

Hi
The description of the album contains the details about it and prefer to view on its album page when you view it. The stream is used to showing as notification. Adding the description on it make longer and this is something a personal customisation depends on site, The layout does not override on JS update in the template so you can customise it as per needs.
