Hidden tracks on playlists

Solved!

Hidden tracks on playlists

Hi,

 

I have this playlist with 20 tracks, but it states it should have 21 tracks. On Spotify I really see 20 tracks, but I embedded a widget of the playlist on my blog. And the widget does show a 21st track. It's a track that was deleted months ago, so I'm not able to play it out of the widget.

 

Is there a way this can be fixed? So that both the widget works and the playlist shows the correct amount of tracks in Spotify itself?

 

It's this playlist:

Singles Going Steady: de 20 beste recente singles van 2013

And here's the widget on my blog:

http://somsvraagteenmenszichaf.blogspot.nl/p/2013.html

 

The 21st song is Autre Ne Veut's Counting (feat. Mykki Blanco) [Remix], tthe first song showed by the widget. I don't remember whether it was a local file or a file that was on Spotify itself, but it was deleted nonetheless.

 

Thanks in advance,

J.

Strangely, I just manually navigated to your playlist inside Spotify and can now see that 21st track but its unplayable (so possibly hidden)

Try going to Edit > Preferences > Playback > Untick "Hide Unplayable Tracks" can you now see it in your playlist?

Hey 🙂 

 

Just had a quick look at this for you, when I view your playlist and the widget, I only see 20 tracks. 

My guess is, the data about the playlist is being cached locally on your computer somewhere hence why you are seeing an older version of the playlist in the widget.

Hey 🙂

 

Okay, but I have this issue on two computers where I use Spotify. On both computers it says there are 21 tracks, whereas there are only 20.

 

And how can I delete that 21st track on the widget, if it's not on the playlist at Spotify itself? 

 

 

I don't see the extra track on the widget either, try clearing your cache and history in your browser and see if it dissappears?

I did that, even tried multiple browsers and reinstalled Spotify a few times. 

 

Spotify itself says the playlist includes a song by Autre Ne Veut, even though it's not in there. Maybe it's in the Spotify cache, if such a thing exists?

Ha, this worked! The 21st track showed up, so I could delete it. Thanks!
