My Question or Issue

I have about 10 playlists on my premium account. They all show as public on my account, but when I got to the account name from a different account, I currently see only ONE public playlist. How to fix this?

Hey @MetalFromNL

 

Thanks for getting in touch about this here in the Community. 

 

We understand that this can be a bit confusing, but no worries, we're here to help. 

 

This is how the playlist publishing works currently:

 

  • If a playlist is added to your Profile - it will be visible and accessible to other users who open your Spotify Profile. They can see and like the playlist.
  • If a playlist is marked as Public - it will not show on your profile by default, so users who open your Spotify Profile won't see it and won't be able to follow it, unless you specifically send them a link to the playlist.
  • If a playlist is marked as Private - it will not show on your profile and users won't be able to follow it. You can still send a link to your friends, however the link will become inactive in 24h and they won't be able to access or follow the playlist after this time frame. This allows you to have more control over who follows your playlists and who can see them at all.

You can find these options by tapping on the 3 dots under the playlist's name (Add to profile, Make public, Make private).

 

Hope this helps. If you have any questions or need a hand with anything else, the Community is here for you.
