The problem

I mainly use Spotify as a music source.
Most of the playlists, including my own created ones do not have the option to sort the tracks which is depicted in the picture below.

If I load a playlist of someone else that I have subscribed to it works as seen in the picture below.

My goal is to have the Position (descending) option for my own playlists.

This issue is sorted. Check my post below for Reverse order playback issue.

You just have to give it time to load the full playlist then you should see the sort options

[apedance]

Oh, thank you. Worked. My bad.

I manually scrolled through all tracks - this made it work.

Okay, the problem is shifting now.
Sorting is working as seen in the picture below. (reverse oder)

If I click on the first song and use Play Playlist from here it will not play the songs as sorted in the gui, it will jump to song number 1 after and continue on.

Goal: I want to play the playlist in reverse order added - song 919, song 918, song 917, etc.

Thank you!

Not possible. I will transfer this to a feature request

I am also facing this issue, the actual playlist playback order / does not match the ordering shown on the playlist page using sorting options.

That is correct. Playlists play in the order they were created. The sorting options are for viewing only. Providing the capability to reorder playlists is on the to do list.
