    Can you show link to your page? It have no clue why in your case album would be "protected".

    That is the problem with custom post type, when it is setup as front page. Wordpress don't have native solution for putting custom post type as front page, and this is why canonical link is wrong.
    BUT I am now searching for solution...
    I think you could use SEO Yoast plugin as most users does when they are really interested in SEO stuff and there you can change canonical links http://kb.yoast.com/article/148-canonical-urls-in-wordpress-seo
    For solution in theme, I don't see way to do it, that wouldn't break SEO plugins. However I will dig in code for few more minutes:-)

    In album there is no use/place for h1 tag. It is used in title bar on other pages. I believe we could put there hidden visually title of album, but it is not always desired. If you want I can help you make this simple modification.

    With kind regards.

    I have just opened your site and it works normal for me, no sign of protected album.

    1. Do you see it on your homepage or other sub page?
    2. Try logging out of wordpress and test your site again.

    With kind regards.

    Still can't see it. Have you tried logging out of admin and then checking the page?

    What other thing? Do you still mean title/seo? Cause I didn't get any particular answer from you about it, after I explained all things, why they are the way they are ;-) and what can be done about it.

    With kind regards.
