Unable to Reset 5-Star Rating Playlist After Deletion

[Dadeoo]

Hello,

I think there may be an issue with the Star Ratings extension.

I had a rating playlist for 5-star songs. After deleting that playlist in Spotify, the extension still seems to reference it internally. When I rate a song with 5 stars, the song is not added to a newly created 5-star playlist as expected. Instead, the extension appears to continue using the deleted playlist's configuration.

Additionally, when I create a new 5-star rating playlist, it gets assigned a higher spillover/version number instead of becoming the primary playlist again. Because of this, I cannot restore the original playlist order or make the new playlist behave as the main 5-star playlist.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a 5-star rating playlist.
2. Delete the playlist in Spotify.
3. Create a new 5-star rating playlist.
4. Rate a song with 5 stars.

Expected behavior:

• The extension should either recreate the primary 5-star playlist or allow reassignment of the rating playlist.
• Songs rated 5 stars should be added to the newly configured playlist.

Actual behavior:

• The extension still seems to reference the deleted playlist.
• New playlists receive higher spillover/version numbers.
• I cannot reset the playlist order or make the new playlist the primary one.

Could you please advise how to reset the rating playlist configuration or remove references to deleted playlists?

Thank you.

@Dadeoo thanks for the report!
We indeed currently don't handle deleted playlists, but that is on my todo.
As a workaround in the meantime, just creating a new playlist and designating it as 5 stars should work just fine. It'll get a higher spillover number, but that should not impact the functionality.
