Site news and announcements
| January 2021 site update |
|---|
From  albummaster on Sunday 3 January 2021 |
| Happy 2021 to everybody. A site update was released last week which added several changes to the site. Added the ability to filter artist discographies in the same way as charts (e.g. filter an artist's live, compilation albums etc). Chart editor suggestions now filter out any previously selected albums. Recognised charts are now sorted by name underneath year/decade charts so you can more easily see the other external 2020 charts that have been added to the site. An issue was also fixed with CSV downloads where quoted comments could cause some columns to become skewed.
In the admin section of the site, background flags have been added to stop the site nagging for data where an artist's nationality or membership can't be determined. BEA now also allows the editing of imminent future dated releases (where the release date is within a couple of days). BEA has also added the ability to flag soundtrack albums (more functionality will be added to support this in a future release when more data has been added). There are lots more changes in the pipeline, so enjoy the site and more soon. AM |

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
