Playlist randomly sorted itself

Pendulous — Sun, 24 Sep 2023 02:02:34 GMT

The browser version of the site randomly decided to sort my playlists by "recently added". I can't click on "title" or "artist" or anything to resort the playlist. I tried Chrome, Opera, I tried removing adblock. Nothing. I'm on Windows 10.

Hey @Pendulous,

Thank you for reaching out here in the Community. Does this happen across all playlists, both ones you created and ones from other people/generated by Spotify? Send us a few screenshots and we'd be happy to take a look.

Keep us posted.

It appears to only be playlists I've created. However, the issue still stands that I can't sort the playlists on a browser

This is how it looks on the browser. You can't highlight the text to sort by the headers.

On the app, you can see the arrow next to artist to indicate it's sorted by the artist name, and in the list you can see them sorted as such. There also doesn't appear to be any options anywhere else to resort the playlist. For the record, I'm using Chrome and Opera, they are both updated.

Currently, it's not possible to sort and filter playlists in the Web player.
