Hi all, I wanted to suggest a feature that I think most who are running Plex server would greatly appreciate. Plex, would you please add a custom splash screen that Plex server owners can edit and add information, like scheduled down times, or info to communicate to end users? Upcoming maintenance, new features, new movies/shows, etc. I know the pre-roll is one way of doing it, but it would be nice to have a section on the Plex server side to create a splash screen to put in info for user that use your Plex server and can write in your own info or statuses for your users. I know a lot of us would greatly appreciate this add-in. Thanks!!

I think you’d rather want to back this feature request: [Send server messages](https://forums.plex.tv/t/send-server-messages/23773/1)

I agree. Honestly, either option would be great. I do like the idea of having an option to put up a splash screen when the user opens the Plex app and a message box pops up and has the info on it (maintenance, reboot times, etc). But either would be a great addition to Plex server. I upvoted the the link you sent as well 🙂
