Hi !

Just a small bug, easy to fix:

In the "TOP list custom links & filters" there is a link for TOP 2000s, but this link only gives results for 2000 and 2014 albums!

This link is:

and it should be:

... and I guess we'll have to update it every year!

I just discovered this same laughable anomaly! I thought I was going crazy looking at the list!

I don't know programming, but I would think it not difficult to create an algorithm that collects only albums released in years starting with "2" (e.g. 2000, 2007, 2017 all begin with the numeral "2" as opposed to the "1" that all 20th Century albums begin with).

I know--and have done--what ProkeKct suggested, but since there is a one-stop-and-shop button for "Classics 1966-1975" it would be nice to have one for our modern day 21st Century additions, wouldn't you all agree?

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

^ Yes, that's it! But could this link could replace the bad one on the "TOP list custom links & filters" page?

And it would have to be updated every year...

Agreed! Why couldn't the non-thinker I prophecy disaster's solution be the default link whenever someone pushed "Top 2000s"?

So I hope this bug could be fixed soon. It's not complicated. Just replace the link by this one I just made below... and we will be good until 2040 !!!

TOP list custom links & filters

There is another similar bug right now on PA's home page. 


Both Top 2022 and Top 2021 links lead to 2022 albums! Confused

The main page link that says "2021 Albums" and "2022 Albums" needs either to be updated to the current years or link removed as it gives the public the impression that the site is no longer in use.

If it is too complicated to show the year dynamically, just remove the link entirely from the ASP file.

It's pretty easy - just edit the .asp file for the mail server and redeploy. I can walk someone through it if need be.

^ I agree, I think it would be great to always have Top [current year] albums and Top [previous year] albums on the home page.

And... as you may already have noticed, there is another bug (see the post above)

Sadly, our webmaster is mostly inactive, so all we can do is hoping for some intervention someday... Ermm

It would be like a ten minute fix. Not expensive.

So M@X and I had a quick chat about those problems. Now it's OK.

On the homepage we now have : Top 2024 Albums & Top 2023 Albums (note that those links should be automatically updated each January 1st).

and the TOP 2000s custom filter was simply removed (M@X's decision).
