Album already exists

[highlorddave]

Hi all,

Trying to add an album to an artists music page but receive the message that the album is already in the database.

The artists page is here:
https://fanart.tv/artist/f1ba04be-6968- ... centiment/
and the musicbrainz id of the album is
cf15cfd6-39bb-4651-97e8-f857ec0c184d

But on the "centiment" page there are no albums showing?

When I check musicbrains the release cf15cfd6-39bb-4651-97e8-f857ec0c184d does belong with the band f1ba04be-6968-4825-9a6b-d4334023cbe3 so unsure where else it could be listed on fanart.tv

I'm pretty new to this so any guidance would be appreciated.

Hey,
The album is Streets Of Rage, correct? Are you trying to upload an Album Cover image?

When you click on the upload button for Album Cover, it shows the albums that have been added to the database. In this case, 4 albums have been added by someone already. You can add an album to the db without uploading an image by doing what you tried; it's just now there is an entry table in the db for that album and now the table needs to be completed by uploading an image, which can be done as I mentioned before by clicking on the upload button for Album Cover, selecting the album and then uploading your image.

Does that make sense?

Makes sense, thanks for the reply.

I think I was confused as I thought that if the album was already in the database I should have seen it shown on the artists page!
