I'm going to focus on your second problem now:

PHP Code:

while ($musical =$db->fetch_array($musicalbum))
    {
    $malbumid = $musical['alid'];
    $malbumname = $musical['alname'];
    $malbumarname = $musical['arname'];
    $malbumarid = $musical['arid'];
    $mcvrsaved = $musical['cvrsaved'];
    } 


You're only going to get one value doing that because you're overwriting the variable each time.

PHP Code:

$musicals = array();
if ($db->num_rows($musicalbum))
{
    while ($musical = $db->fetch_array($musicalbum))
    {
        $musicals[] = $musical;
    }
}
$db->free_result($musicalbum); 


Now we're cooking.

I've replace your unnecessary variables with an array and, furthermore, I've made sure each row gets it own place in the array.

PHP Code:

$musicstat = $db->query_read("SELECT nr_artists, nr_albums,nr_tracks FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX ." stats");
while ($music_stat = $db->fetch_array($musicstat))
{
$statar = $music_stat['nr_artists'];
$statal = $music_stat['nr_albums'];
$statt = $music_stat['nr_tracks'];
} 


Think you can figure out how to fix this?

Now replace all that ugliness in your first template render with:

PHP Code:

$templater->register('musicals', $musicals); 


Now you have an array of all the albums ready for display.

I'd recommend using {vb:each [, ]} to loop through that array and do that.

Read my article, it should help you get the basics down: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=280880
