How to add game to Platform Category playlist


Go to solution Solved by JoeViking245,

Hey there. Trying to add games individually/manually to a Platform Category playlist, but all I can do is use Auto-populate in the editor. When I try to right click and highlight "Add to Playlist", the playlist I created under my platform category does not show up as an option. It just shows "New Playlist". This presents a problem for me because some fighting games fall under the genre of "Action", instead of "Fighting", so I can't use Auto-populate because it would flood my fighting section with action games if I use the action parameter for Auto-populate genre. Appreciate any help!

You need to un-check Auto-Populate to be able to manually add games to a playlist.

[If it helps] you can start with - creating the playlist using the Auto-Populate checkbox and filter(s).  Click Games to see the games that fit that filter. Go back to Auto-Populate, and un-check the box.  Click OK to save and Close.

You can also just fix the genre on those games and remove Action (and add fighting if needed) so that the metadata was correct and then the playlist would be as well.
