This depends on the configuration of the "Mixed Tag" module in the
Custom Scan plugin.

Let's say you have the following configuration in the "Mixed Tag"
module:
Artist tags      : ARTIST               
Album Artist tags: ARTIST,ALBUMARTIST
Track Artist tags: TRACKARTIST

The result of this in the Tags menu is that you will see:
Tags/Artists: Will show artists tagged as either artists or album
artists
Tags/Album Artists: Will show artists tagged as album artists
Tags/Track Artists: Will show artists tagged as track artists

So if you don't like to album artists to show up under artists, you
will need to change the "Mixed Tag" configuration so:
Album Artist tags: ALBUMARTIST

Another thing is that this menu doesn't use the TrackStat statistics
which means that if you change a tag in a file it will affect the order
if the modification time of the file is changed.

The next version of the menu template will use TrackStat statistics if
available and the album will be sorted so newest added album will show
up first. The new version is already now available for download using
the download links in the Custom Browse web interface.

I can't reproduce this, for me it shows up as:
"Custom Browse / Ratings / 4 stars / Gomez"

Is this a menu where you have customized the SQL/XML yourself ?
If this is the case, that is the problem. The navigation names required
changes in some menu configurations, the Ratings menu is one of these.

If this isn't the case, make sure you really have the latest menu
template. The current Custom Browse release will use templates
available in the template directory specified in "Server
Settings/Plugins/Custom Browse" before the same template in the plugin
directory. So if you have downloaded the "Ratings" menu before and now
just unzipped the new Custom Browse release, it will use your old
downloaded template. To correct this, just delete the downloaded
template by selecting "Settings->Edit menus->Create new menu" and then
find "Ratings (Delete)" menu type and hit the delete link beside the
parenteses.

I'm going to change this so it looks at the timestamp instead. This way
you don't have to use the "download latest menus" link after you have
unzipped a new plugin release.

which items to place where since that's the main purpose that I choosed
to replace the standard Song Info page. The page is currently divided
into two separate columns where I can choose to place each item in
either the left or right column. Currently the artwork is placed in the
left and all the items in the right.

I'll add it to the wish list and see if I can improve it.

Are you saying that you would like it to point somewhere else or are
you saying that it shouldn't be available at all on songs ?
