This is the first site update since May as I've been pretty busy in my personal life moving country. Things should settle down during the winter and we'll be back on a monthly release-cycle.

There are quite a few changes to the site this month and the bigger/more notable changes are listed below:

  • Ratings have been changed so that they now increment/decrement in units of 5 (out of 100.) People were having some trouble with how the ratings worked before (too difficult to hover over the correct value) and some users reported that ratings were 'skipping' on certain units (e.g. see this forum post from Elston.) All existing ratings have been rounded to the nearest multiple of five.
  • Smartened up the chart table headers across the site.
  • On the member favourites page, you can now sort the columns via the 'title' or 'ratings' column (request from Elston.)
  • We've added a Store page to the site which lists the top 10 albums on the iTunes Store and on BestEverAlbums.com with links if people want to purchase them.
  • You can now customise the overall chart to ignore charts with more than x entries by the same band (if you want to ignore some charts that are full of Beatles albums etc.) Thanks to caralladas76 for this suggestion.
  • Fixed minor issues with RSS feeds (so that they validate better.)
  • Members can edit their own album/band/chart comments (if there are no subsequent comments.) Thanks to Elston for this suggestion as well.

We hope you enjoy the site and we'll have some more changes next month...
