Search Artist on your own playlist, plays artist that is not searched for

[Philipgu]

Hey!

I think it was around 2 months ago or something like that this changed. Before and ever since i got Spotify on my iphone like 5-6 years ago. You were always able to search for an artist or a band on your own playlist and spotify would only play that artist or bands songs that u have on your playlist (even if u had shuffel). Now that dosent work, you search for the artist and then they just play it as it is from the list so if u for an exampel have 50 foo fighters songs and the first 10 of them arent in the same spot on the list as the others will spotify play from the reagular playlist and it would play maybe Metallica if i had a Metallica song after those songs in the playlist.

This was not a problem before when they would only play the artist that u had searched for even if the song where in diferent spots in the playlist.

Is this a feature that has been removed? wich seemes really stupid

Hey @Philipgu

There is currently a known issue with the playlist filter not playing the right songs after you have searched.
