Changelog

v7.0 — 2026-06-10

Alt-cover panel redesign

• Alt cover rehost links are now hidden by default — replaced with a live summary: Checking alternate covers… → 2 of 4 alternate covers may need rehosting with an inline [Show all] link
• Summary count updates after image probes settle; orange if action needed, grey if all fine
• Clicking Show all reveals all links at once

Smarter image state detection

• New [rehost recommended — hosted on Discogs] state for images that load fine but are on a temporary source domain (Discogs CDN, MusicBrainz, Qobuz, etc.) — distinct from genuine quality failures
• Broken images on rehost domains (e.g. a dead ptpimg link) now correctly show [broken image — rehost?] rather than [already rehosted — redo?]
• Images already on catbox, imgbb, TheSunGod, ptpimg etc. correctly show [already rehosted — redo?] even if not rehosted via CoverUp
• Image quality check now probes via a fresh Image() object using the actual URL — fixes false "broken" results for Gazelle lazy-loaded alt covers whose img.src was blank at check time
• getRehostedUrl() lookup now uses the actual image URL rather than img.src, preventing source URLs (e.g. Discogs CDN links) from being incorrectly marked as already rehosted after a previous rehost

Discogs release metadata in summary tags

• When picking a cover from the Discogs Search tab, the release's country and year (e.g. UK, 1970) are automatically written into the cover's summary tag on RED — no extra steps needed

Alt-cover POST fix (the core bug — v6.53–6.67)

• Fixed: alt covers silently failed to save on the torrent page. Root cause: Redacted's addCoverField() creates inputs named image[] and summary[] (PHP array notation), not image and summary. Every POST was ignored by the server until this was corrected.

v6.70 — 2026-06-10

• Added REHOST_DOMAINS and isOnRehostDomain() helper to distinguish permanent rehost destinations from source domains
• Added SOURCE_DOMAINS and isOnSourceDomain() helper for temporary/expiring image hosts
• "Already rehosted" check now considers the current image URL's domain, not only CoverUp's stored rehost history
• Added label above alt covers panel explaining what the rehost links are

v6.68 — 2026-06-10

• Fixed alt cover replace on torrent page — POST fields corrected to image[] / summary[]
• Switched alt cover POST to multipart FormData to match Gazelle's own cover_art.js submission method
• Added live page fetch before POST to use auth token from current DOM, preventing stale token issues
• Discogs CDN images (i.discogs.com) now correctly flagged for re-upload rather than passed direct to RED

v6.65–6.67 — 2026-06-10

• Extensive diagnostic work to identify the silent POST failure: XHR spy, jQuery ajaxSend spy, and live DOM inspection of addCoverField() used to identify the image[] / summary[] field name discrepancy
• Add-cover POST encoding tested across URL-encoded and multipart formats

v6.59–6.64 — 2026-06-10

• Fixed "Processing…" hang for images on known permanent hosts — these now skip re-upload and go direct to save
• Fixed Discogs release picker fallback to use handleUploadSuccess correctly
• Added i.discogs.com to the needsReupload list — Discogs CDN URLs are signed and expiring
• Expanded form field scanning to entire page (not just form container)
• Added full form HTML logging and page notice logging to diagnose silent POST failures
• Added stopImmediatePropagation() to rehost link click handlers to prevent Gazelle's jQuery delegation intercepting clicks; moved link div outside cover_div ancestor for the same reason

v6.53–6.58 — 2026-06-10

• Initial debugging of the alt-cover replace bug: old image was being removed but new one never saved
• Added guard to only run remove_cover_art if add_cover_art succeeds
• Added response body logging for both add and remove actions
• Tested remove-first vs add-first ordering — confirmed remove was working, add was silently failing
• Confirmed Gazelle's add_cover div contains only three hidden fields (action, auth, groupid) — no image or summary field in the HTML

v6.39 — 2026-06-08 (baseline)

Starting point for this development cycle. Alt-cover replace broken on torrent pages (remove worked, add silently failed). All other functionality intact.

added Amazon/itunes support

improved Musicbrainz/Qobuz/Deezer search where no direct link is provided in the release

Allows upload from computer
Advises when image has been rehosted already and prompts to re-do if needed.

Added sungod (+API) support

further enhancements to discogs search

host "remember my choice" changed to disabled by default.

improved discogs search

added update url

allows for custom image hoster to be used.

changed to allow user to specify preferred fallback in case imgbb is not regionally available or otherwise problematic.

improved Qobuz search

v6.14 added in Catbox as a fallback image host

improved resizing logic

Updated to include better source availability (e.g. Musicbrainz)

v6.11 (2026-05-09)

Added multi-source artwork picker overlay, replacing the Discogs-only dialog

Page source links (Qobuz, Apple Music, Bandcamp, Deezer, Tidal, Spotify, Amazon) are now scanned automatically and shown in a Page Sources tab — results stream in as each service responds

Direct Discogs release/master URLs in the page (e.g. linked as a source on the torrent) are resolved via the Discogs API, returning all images (primary + secondaries) as individual selectable cards — no longer relies solely on keyword search for these

Discogs keyword search moved to a separate Discogs Search tab, running in parallel

Each artwork card shows a coloured source badge and a live resolution badge (green ≥500px, red below)

Discogs token setup is now accessible from within the picker footer without blocking other sources

Per-service resolvers: Apple Music uses iTunes lookup API at max resolution; Deezer uses public API cover_xl; Qobuz constructs CDN URL directly; Bandcamp bumps og:image from 700px (_7) to original (_0)

v6.9 — imgbb fallback when ptpimg down; canary check before ptpimg upload; ptpimg/imgur flagged for rehosting; always shows Discogs search on click; "image ok — rehost anyway?" label; removed unreliable file size check; inline imgbb key prompt if no key found

Prompts for API if not hardcoded

v6.8 — Always shows Discogs search on rehost click; ptpimg/imgur flagged for rehosting; imgbb fallback when ptpimg down; removed unreliable file size check; "image ok — rehost anyway?" label for fine images

v6.2 — imgbb fallback when ptpimg is unavailable; canary check verifies ptpimg CDN before uploading; only flags imgur and low-resolution images (removed unreliable file size check); hardcoded API key constants for easy setup

v6.1 — Added imgbb fallback when ptpimg is unavailable. Canary check verifies ptpimg CDN is actually serving images before uploading. Hardcoded API key constants for easy setup.
