Very sorry for the confusion. Correct, it’s the same “Yes” confirmation error.

What I was trying to say is that when I uploaded this album, I moderated the album’s year of release (without moderating anything else), clicked yes to confirm and was successful doing so. But then went back to moderate the remainder (album cover and tracklist), clicked yes to confirm and then got the error message on the next page.

Hopefully this helps, apologies again for the confusion!

Thanks for the extra detail, I'll see if I can repro the issue and make a fix. I think it might be a combination of the back button and iOS. I've added an extra safety check before the form is submitted to verify that the 'Yes' confirmation is actually selected. It's possible that, after navigating back, the button still appears selected even though the browser hasn't correctly restored its checked state.

Thanks. I'm not quite sure what you mean by between the album cover and the track list. Is there a particular field or something else that's preventing you from moderating, or are you seeing an error message? My previous reply suggested the 'Yes' confirmation might have been the issue, but now it sounds like something different is going on. Apologies, I just want to get to the bottom of it so I can reproduce the problem and get a fix in place, but at the moment I'm not sure where the issue is occurring.

Same issue is still happening unfortunately. I’m able to upload an album and even put in the year but something between the album cover and the track list it’s not allowing me to moderate. (Album in question is Free by Airto Moreira from 1972)

Apologies for the problem, just updated the details. Are you still getting the same error about clicking the yes button at the bottom of the screen before saving?

Yeah it was the same yes button notice. I’ll let you know how it goes next time I try to moderate. Thank you in the meantime!

Having the same problem trying to admin a record I uploaded to the site. If anyone else wanted to complete moderation for A Música Livre De Hermeto Pascoal (1973), that would be excellent.

If you’d like, you can definitely moderate it the rest of the way. �'�

Apologies, a bit of a quirk with the current system where you have to click 'Yes' on the radio button at the bottom of the moderation screen before saving to confirm your changes. (Not sure if this is the reason or not (or another issue), for not saving, as obviously you've made lots of prior edits/corrections which didn't have same problem). (Thanks MJ for picking up).

Hello. I just added “Force of Nature: Live At Slugs” by McCoy Tyner and Joe Henderson but when I go to moderate, add tracks and press approve there seems to be something wrong because it doesn’t add the moderation.

Hi Albummaster,

Can you please look into why my 2026 chart is not reflecting any chart ranking points?
I think this may be affecting a few other users too.

Thanks for feedback, The Skip button is meant to take you straight back to the edit chart screen, so that part is working as intended (you no longer need to wait five seconds).

The navigation links should take you directly to the page you clicked, but it sounds like that isn’t happening. I’ll take another look to see what might be preventing those clicks from working. (EDIT: I’ve had another look and I think I’ve identified what’s happening: the Newly Added Albums page can sometimes take a while to load, which makes it appear as if the click hasn’t worked. In reality, the page is loading in the background, and by the time it finishes loading the countdown has also completed. Just investigating why this has slowed down lately).

Thanks.

Specifically, it's after hitting Add Chart, then clicking Home / Newly Added Albums. It was working fine until a couple of days ago. Now it ignores the request and returns me to the chart edit page.

Thanks for noting extra steps to repro this, I'll check to see what's happening.
