# Playlists

A **playlist** is a collection of songs. It is the thing you actually put on a page — you never place a single song on its own.

Create playlists in the admin area under the playlists section.

## Fields

| Field    | What it is                                                              |
| -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Name     | The playlist's name.                                                    |
| Logo     | An image shown with the player. Chosen through the e107 media manager.  |
| Poster   | The default cover art, used for songs that have no poster of their own. |
| Autoplay | Whether the playlist starts playing on its own.                         |

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Unknown:** the exact values the *Autoplay* field accepts. It is stored as text, not as a yes/no switch, and the admin help text does not say what to type. See [Open questions](/jplayer-plugin/reference/open-questions.md).
{% endhint %}

## Playlist order

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Unknown / unsafe.** The playlists screen is configured for drag-to-reorder, but it is pointed at the record's ID rather than at a dedicated order column — and the table does not have one. Reordering playlists by dragging may therefore rewrite the IDs, which other records point at.

**Do not reorder playlists by dragging until this has been tested.** See [Open questions](/jplayer-plugin/reference/open-questions.md).
