REKORDBOX - Beatport LINK Playlist Management - More options (move, remove, add, rename playlist etc)
Currently within Rekordbox we are unable to drag tracks from a Beatport Link search into Beatport playlists that are shown on Rekordbox. In fact all right click track manipulation options are greyed out at present.
Some more options to manage the Beatport playlists from with Rekordbox would be a great feature. It would make music discovery a lot more fun as well. You could try out a few tracks, bang them into a BeatPort playlist within Rekordbox, with the option to buy tracks from the web-based playlist as well.
Currently in Rekordbox 5.7 I'm unable to add tracks from Beatport Link search to Beatport Link playlists. This has to be done via the Beatport website. It seems odd that this functionality is missing within Rekordbox.

Currently working with Pioneer DJ to bring this functionality in the upcoming releases

Can we get an update from Pioneer on this feature? Would really be a good feature, now still swapping to the Beatport site in a browser to add a new track to a playlist....

+1 we need to be able to copy playlists to dj charts and vice versa.. insane we can't do this and share with others!!

As per Phillberry's comment, these playlist management features must include the ability to use Beatport LINK tracks in intelligent playlists - absolutely essential! Please implement these changes ASAP so we can all use Rekordbox as intended.

Rekordbox 6 solves most of these issues...

I started my trial today and have been stumped, unless I'm missing something really obvious, you can't use intelligent playlists for Beatport Link tracks, I rely heavily on these and would really like to see this updated!

Hi all - BeatPort have improved "add to playlist" functionality on the website. I can search on the BeatPort website and add tracks to playlists via a dropdown menu off the pink "buy track" button. Nice work guys! WAYYY easier to add stuff to playlists via the website now!! Thank you! All that remains is for RekordBox to sort their end - which I believe is on its way in some form or another after the 5.8.3 release on January 28th 2020. Not saying it's gonna happen immediately after 5.8.3, but I think we'll be that much closer!! Yay! :)

Thanks for the votes everyone and thank you to BeatPort Link team for adding this to the planned features. This will be a substantial improvement to the Rekordbox - BeatPort Link experience!

I fully support this idea, I have repeatedly written in support of beatport and rekordbox. I thought it would be done in the fall, as the beatport team promised us, but in support of the rekordbox, they told me a few days ago that they did not plan this function. It’s very strange, as if they were making a beatport link not just for DJs, but just to make it
and yes, the purchase of tracks should be implemented directly in the rekordbox, if they really want to help us

I'm still stunned you can't add Beatport tracks to Beatport playlists from within Rekordbox. It's absolutely ridiculous! What is the point of the whole thing then? Are we supposed to have the browser open to the Beatport website and do all playlist management on there instead?

What a great thing to hear the new tracks directly with rekorbox! Really great but when hearing a great one, I would like to do it in rekorbox with "drag and drop" and not going to the website and adding the track in the playlist.

I've got a bit of a workaround as rekordbox tagging still works with Beatport Link tracks you can put them all in a genre playlist, for example and then use tags for 'new' in rekordbox and then use the rekordbox filters to filter for 'new' tracks or anything else you tag by.
Dfifferent to my normal workflow but it's as close as I've been able to get.

I have all my music from one Genre in a play list... I would like to be able to add tracks from that play list in to a "New" Play list via the RekordBox interface... drag and drop or a right click add to play list would be nice

Add the option to move a track to another one of your playlists.
I've got playlists that i've made by month but I want to be able to see all tracks from a specific genre together, for example.
Normally i'd do this with Intelligent Playlists in Rekorbox, but these aren't available (hopefully temporarily) so I have to use the BP site to organise tracks into playlists but once a track is in a playlist the only thing I can do to it is delete it.

I assumed this would be available really disappointing it’s not. Find a great track then come out of the preview into library, with much less effective search and re-find the track. Should be so simple to fix

Are we going to be able to create playlists in library using an add to button from the song preview. Instead of having to search each song and adding from the library page? Using the new link with Rekordbox.
