Bulk add items to watchlist

I like the new watchlist feature; it adds functionality that I’ve so far had to do with collections (as playlists just don’t work as well).

However, the current method of adding items to watchlist (i.e. clicking ‘add to watchlist’ on each individual item) doesn’t allow bulk adding items. This is necessary to transfer the hundreds of items in my ‘to watch’ collection to the new watchlist.

Please add the functionality to ‘add to watchlist’ in the context menu when selecting multiple items. Likewise, the watchlist should support multiple selections, and allow ‘remove from watchlist’ in the context menu.

@atb001 Hi. Any update on this?

Also, what about .txt file / spreadsheet with a list of movie titles. It’d be nice to have an option to add it to the watchlist at once. Any plans to make it possible?

Plex never share it’s roadmap

And when said, 2 votes in 3 years doesn’t indicate a huge need among Plex users :wink:

Yet, it’s an obvious omission and would be incredibly simple to add this to the existing context menu.
