Apologies for the sudden 4 day "read-only" status of the website.
We've moved to a new upgraded web-server. This was done at an unexpected short notice.
You may see some small visual glitches in the short term as a result of the transfer, these will be fixed when overnight maintence scripts are run.
If you've added some missing info to items in the last week, or removed items from your collection, then the changes might have been rolled-back. You can redo the changes if you wish.
We're monitoring the website closely, but please report any bugs you see such as pages not loading properly.
When adding movies now, the order of the most common countries are no longer in the order they used to be in (used to be USA, UK, etc. but is now France, Mexico, UK, USA, Europe, International.) My guess is that these are no longer in order of most common entries, as was before.

In Books, when you search for an author and the author's name comes up, when you click on that to see all their books it comes up saying "An error occurred while displaying this page. You can try refreshing this page, or go back to the previous page."

the same error message & options message after performing a number of additions or other operations in bookcat; neither refreshing the page, nor going back & then returning to the page one was on remove the error/message.
- and, ''glad you & everythingcats is (?are?) back.''
Welcome back. I'm getting the same error when trying to access an author's bibliography list as mentioned above. So far I've only seen this in the Books world, not, for example, CDs, Vinyl Albums or 45cat.

You don't see many of the rare ones, do you? Member since Jul 2012 1942 Points
Following on from a request I had about different bands called Sugar, since the server migration this has thrown up two glitches; 1. The 1990s band was changed here briefly to "Sugar [Bob Mould]" (to align it with the 45cat entry), but now when I click on this it shows 410: Gone. And if I put "Sugar [Bob Mould]" into the 45worlds general search box I get a blank page here - no live gigs, no CDs, no LPs.. zip, nada!

Only problem with World for the future is "Server Migration" is bound to be some band releasing something new for RSD 2024 on cassingle , with tracks called Index Woes and Fields of Gibberish
I miss items in my CDSingles collection since the server migration, too. My other collections (7"vinyl on 45cat and my collection on 45spaces don't have this problem)
I noticed my CDSingles collection went down from around 240 to actual 150. Some of the missing (around 10) are added shortly before the Server Migration and are deselected. OK, I can add these again. But that is sadly not the hole problem.
When I go to my collection and sort the list with "last added" I have singles from artists like Vengaboys, Robbie Williams or Wet Wet Wet on the first page.
After sorting it with "Artist" the list ends with Nelly on Page 3. Vengaboys, Robbie Williams or Wet Wet Wet are not shown.
Another thing is:
I know I added 2 singles from Snap! as some of the first adds to my collection. When I search them in the database (for example https://www.45worlds.com/cdsingle/cd/74321254672) the single is marked with "I own". When I then go to my collection with the collection button in the upper right corner of the site, the single is showed in my collection on Page 4 of 3 (!)
The singe from Cher (https://www.45worlds.com/cdsingle/cd/3984252779) was the first one I added to my collection and it is shown as the 30th entry on Page 5 of 3.
My collection should therefore still have 230 entries and not just the 150 shown.
First I thought it is a problem with the browser or the cache. But I tried this on my Mac, my iPhone and Windows-PC at work. everywhere the same result.
When Server Migration started I was logged in, and adding a new single to the database (not to my collection).
Edit:
Deselecting of the last added item in my collection corrected the problem. Now it shows my 230 items again!
Not really a bug from the server migration, but a change that might be good to have in some instances is not only the ability to have multiple Cinema film entries for one DVD release, but also multiple TV series for a DVD package that could happen on occasion.
An example of this is a DVD package that I just added as follows:
Initially when creating this, I though that there were two cinema entries to be added in addition to a television series that I added for the third DVD:
But in looking more closely, the first two DVDs actually also each had two separate earlier television series on each DVD rather than three different film entries (later films by the same name on the site) in the set:
I can use URL references like I am here, but those browsing the site would probably like to see this DVD entry come up when they are browsing the TV entries above that aren't linked to this DVD box set title.
If we could add additional TV titles as well, then the site might work nicer for DVD/VHS releases with multiple TV series contained in those packages.
