My Question or Issue

When I am on an artists page, there are usually green checkmarks that indicate that I have already added the song to a playlist. However, I found multiple songs from various artist missing the green checkmark even though the song already exists in my playlist. If I add the same song into the playlist its already in, it also does not display the "Already added" message. For example, I have added the entirety of the album "0.1 flaws and all." by wave to earth in my playlist "favs". But in the album page, it shows that "homesick," "dried flower," and "nouvelle vague" aren't in any playlists I made.

Hi there @juhgkoop,

 

Thanks for reaching out. We'll be happy to help you manage your library.

 

You see the same thing on both PC and mobile, correct? What about the web player? If you haven't tested this, please do so.

 

If you see the same everywhere, it's most likely that multiple versions of the same song exist and this is causing this conflict. Try right clicking or using the three dots to copy the link or URI of the songs in the artist profiles and the playlist in question and compare them. If they're different, then it's two versions, so feel free to replace them as you see fit. If they appear the same, but the plus symbol still doesn't work, please let us know so we can assist you further.

 

Let us know how it goes.
