Another very small issue on my end: trying to arrange artists I’ve listened to/rated in alphabetical order gives me an error message.

Apologies, thanks for reporting. Identified the issue, plan to deploy a fix along with the above tomorrow morning (when site is a bit quieter).

This is a pretty small issue, but I was browsing the Best of the 2020s decade page the other night and found something that is off with the composition lists. When paring down the criteria from Top 1000 to Top 100, the table was displaying a number of albums that went beyond 100. Specifically, there was one extra 2020 and 2021 album and nine 2026 albums as well. I then went through every decade and found that from the 1990s decade page to the present that there was a similar issue with each composition table when pairing down to just the top 100. I checked the 2020s page again this morning since it was the most egregious and it at least partially fixed itself where now the only error is it saying there are four 2026 albums in the 2020 top 100.

I'm not sure how many people use that functionality, but I thought I'd point out what I'd seen.

Thanks for picking up, agree looks like a bug (the live & soundtrack compositions also show an extra four albums for 2020s in top 100 - same bug probably exists across different periods). Checking into now to see where the issue is coming from. (EDIT: Identified the issue, plan to push a fix live tomorrow).

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!

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.
