My album chart edits disappeared
Hello everyone. First of all, I wanna give the admins and anyone who worked on this site for this relaunch a big thank you and WOW, you guys really turned it around - it's really pleasant to use it now.
After Zero relaunched, my album charts got messed up - see, after a new album comes out, I assign scrobbles of its pre-released singles to the album with my last.fm premium. However, that obviously messes up the charts and makes the albums with pre-released singles chart before their actual release, so I try not to touch the older charts. So, I went through all of the 300 album charts I've had and organized - and to be honest, that was a real pain, but I got through it and my charts looked really nice and neat.
Recently, I wanted to tidy up my songs charts, so I started with week 1 and went upwards from then, eventually getting to the 140th week of my charts before I realized that when I edited my songs charts, the albums chart reset as well. So, my work with tidying up the albums charts kind of went to waste.
Here's my question - is there any way to bring back those reset album charts back to the moment when I edited them, or do I have to edit those 140 album charts again? I'll be thankful for any response and help.

It's a probable bug, and thank you for flagging it, we'll investigate so the reset doesn't keep happening.
We don't yet offer cloud support for saving chart data (only images and tag corrections are saved server-side, and that's for PRO), but you can keep a copy of your chart and your edits by downloading it in Settings: https://zerocharts.com.br/blog/aprenda-exportar-seus-charts-e-capas-para-seu-celular
So, we looked into your case. Since there were changes to the total number of scrobbles, the chart had to be recalculated and reset to reflect the correct data.
I assume you're doing this to prevent albums from debuting before their actual release date? Your issue is a little confusing, so I just want to make sure I understand correctly. Are you trying to keep the pre-release singles assigned to the album without affecting the album's debut date in your chart?
Yes, I am trying to prevent albums from debuting before their actual release date. Therefore, when there's a pre-release single, I usually assign them to the artist's latest album, so that I don't have any singles charting on the albums chart, and after the album is released, I assign those pre-releases to their actual parent album. So, I usually just avoid touching older album charts to avoid mess (like albums debuting before their actual release date). However, I have already edited those 140 album charts I was talking about earlier.

We're working in a feature to filter these albums until they're released. We can't restore our charts cause right now they're stored only in our browser.
