Deleting an album

From Doc

You can delete an album using your Phanfare web-browser client or via the desktop application. When deleting an album, you have the option to permanently delete it or move to recycle bin where it will reside for 14 days before being purged from the system. If you choose to delete forever and not move to the recycle bin, there is no way to retrieve the album from our system.
