Spotify Playlist Page Sea

The native Spotify Web Player does not allow users to search for songs within a playlist. This extension adds that missing search feature.

HOW TO USE:

1. Visit any playlist page
2. Click the magnifying glass icon or press the keyboard shortcut (alt/option + shift + s) to perform a search
3. Search for a song by title, artist, or album
4. Click or press Enter on the song you want to play
5. That song is immediately scrolled into view and starts playing

A convenient "Jump to playing song" button is also provided. You can click it to scroll the currently playing song into view (see screenshot).

In order for this extension to be able to access the list of songs that exist within the playlist, it needs to be connected to Spotify by following the steps below.

FAQ

> Why do I need to create an app for this extension to work?

This extension only uses the connected app for one thing: to fetch the list of songs for the current playlist. This is necessary to get each song title, artist, album, and links that the extension displays in its search popup.

> How can I customize the keyboard shortcut?

This extension provides a alt/option + shift + s keyboard shortcut you can use to show/hide the search popup. To customize the keyboard shortcut to something else, go to the Chrome "Keyboard shortcuts" page by navigating to `chrome://extensions/shortcuts` in a browser tab. Find this extension on the list and click the edit button to set your own custom keyboard shortcut.
