Misplaced folder
Hi again 😅
This "folder" (not sure what to call it) has been misplaced—it should be here instead. It has been assigned to a close town, but not the correct one.
Hopefully it has an easy solution. Thanks!
P.S. In this case, the folder on the left should have the same name as the one on the right: https://www.familysearch.org/search/image/index?owc=9PL8-MNL%3A141480201%2C163737401%3Fcc%3D1784529&cc=1784529
The same issue appears here: "San Patricio" and "Santa Patricio" refer to the same parish, but the latter is misspelled and should be corrected to "San Patricio": https://www.familysearch.org/search/image/index?owc=9PV1-3TG%3A141480201%2C164416001%3Fcc%3D1784529&cc=1784529

They're supposed to be hyperlinks, I don't like pasting the whole URL… but I'll leave both at the end of my comment just in case. Thanks!

…happens 😆 Still a good idea to make it more easily findable

Yes, I was going to suggest making the specifics more evident if you want the appropriate mod to find your post and take action.

Same happens here: the three at the top are the same as the three at the bottom. It would be useful to unify them.
Also here, both folders are the same parish, could be unified:

@OmarBudesca I apologize for losing this thread and failing to respond!
FamilySearch used to organize some image collections with this structure in your examples, called waypoints. Now the site is moving away from that extra layer. Instead, it uses the information already attached to the images (place, dates, and so on) to search and view images more directly. You will notice fewer and fewer of these waypoint style menus and they are no longer updated. Any existing errors will simply phase out.

No worries, I'm more "worried" about the other two threads (the ones about the restricted images) than this.
Regarding the waypoint system you mention, it's a pity! I really liked this system the best, it was the most clear and practical imo. Nevertheless, since the change is happening regardless, I better get used to it soon rather than later.
The catalog will stay though, right? I'm asking because it's the only method that provides a direct look into what books there are and whether they can be accessed or not, whereas the image viewer simply doesn't show books that are not accessible, as if they didn't exist.

@OmarBudesca Absolutely, the catalog stays and we are working to improve how images are accessed.
