Hello, sorry to piggyback on this. I'm getting the following error when using the import button:

Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to ezsqlDatabaseez_mysqli::escape() must be of the type string, null given, called in C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comadd_album.php on line 209 and defined in C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comvendorezsqlezsqllibDatabaseez_mysqli.php:183 Stack trace: #0 C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comadd_album.php(209): ezsqlDatabaseez_mysqli->escape() #1 {main} thrown in C:inetpubwww.theaudiodb.comvendorezsqlezsqllibDatabaseez_mysqli.php on line 183

This are the musicbrainz URLs that I'm trying to import:
- https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/4026215e-5352-447f-a7b2-86ef5819647e
- https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/cd2ae712-4bda-4544-9668-341ac8a50de1

Is there any issue with musicbrainz, theaudiodb or am I doing something wrong?
