I managed to create an album accidentally within the Plex web interface, falsely thinking I was creating a folder within my library. The album now contains all my photos.
How can I delete the album again?
When I try to delete it, I get a draconian warning about deleting content on the file system. I do not mean to delete 60000 photos. How can I get rid of the “album” while keeping my photos?
Are you sure you’re reading the warning correctly? If you’re deleting the Library by selecting Delete from the “…” menu next to the Library, the message should be as below:
I appreciate the thought, @beckfield, but the question is about deleting an album not a library. Screenshot:
Okay, I wondered. I just verified, though, that deleting an album does not delete the media files associated with the album. It’s just a playlist. The message probably needs some clarification.
Thank you @beckfield.
I’ll delete it after the next backup cycle is complete.
