Subject: Bug in the 'Songs That Mention Other Songs' index
Written By: Brown Ant on 05/16/06 at 11:26 am
Hey Chuck, I noticed in the "Songs That Mention Other Songs" section, on the index page (which lists all artists alphabetically), Wham! appears under the letter L...why is that?? Even more weird, it puts "lastchristmas" in the URL; that's not the name of the band. (IOW, the URL for Wham's "songs that mention other songs" is http://www.amiright.com/real/songartist/lastchristmas.shtml instead of http://www.amiright.com/real/songartist/wham.shtml)

there's a sort field, so that a band name will appear in the right place. it got filled in wrong, so now it needs to be changed. It should fix the problem, though the URL may remain the same, or maybe the old page will remain even if the name is fixed and a proper filename is created for the new fixed name. Not sure if the editor for that page had the ability to fix it themselves yet
