OK so for whatever reason this seems to be more complicated then it should be…
I currently have a few users including both family members and friends with Plex Accounts and access to my server. Having just become a PLEX Pass subscriber I click Settings > Users > My Home. Here I wish to add an existing user. I click Add User and the box opens. I click Add An Existing User and have entered both there username and email address. Both provide a green check at which point I click Next. Here I select the few Shares I wish to allow him access to and click ADD.
At this point a red warning window opens saying “user must be specified” ???
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Seems to be a new problem that several are seeing.
Thanks… For whatever reason its now working. No changes but suddenly Home Users can be added. I posted the following in that other thread but below as well.
As posted in the above thread…
"Same error “user must be specified” for me while attempting to add a Home User. Running the latest PLEX plugin 1.1.4.2757 on a FreeNAS server. I’ve attempted to add my son whose an existing PLEX user via email address and user-id with full access, with limited shares and with/without restrictions only to get the same error message. Additionally I’ve tried with him logged in and logged out, both locally and online. I’ve also attempted to add a new user with the same results.
Update: So the above was attempted earlier yesterday and again last night. I failed to mention that I had restarted the PLEX service after my afternoon attempt which had no affect.
Just now after posting this I gave it another attempt and lo-and-behold it went though successfully adding his existing account. Nothing has changed … Go figure. :-/ "
