Server Version#: 1.41.3.9314-a0bfb837

I can not locate the “Fix Match” feature to correct the TV Show library data. Is there a way to associate the TV Show with the correct information?

Fix Match is only available at the show level. It cannot be performed on individual seasons or episodes.

If you have episodes when aren’t matching correctly, you need to check into the episode ordering options (Hover over show poster → Edit [pencil icon] → Advanced → Episode ordering) and/or ensure your episodes match one of the orders listed on TheTVDB (usually aired, DVD, or absolute, though there are other alternate orders for some series).

I understand Fix Match is only at the show level. That option does not appear when I try to edit it. When I click on the poster and select edit the option is not there.

The TV Show Life has 2 seasons but when I updated my library it created the first season as a different show.

If you want to edit a single show, use the pencil icon that appears directly on the poster of that show when moving your mouse pointer over it.  
The options that appear at the top after “selecting” a show poster only contain things which can be applied to several shows at once.

Alternatively, you can use the pencil icon on the preplay page of the show.  
To reach it, click once on the title of that show under the poster.

Thank you very much. I was able to make the update to the show.

If you want to avoid mismatches like the above from the beginning, stick to the naming guidelines. [https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-tv-show-files/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-tv-show-files/)  
At minimum, create a folder structure as shown in the guide and include the release `(year)` of S01E01 of the show in the top folder name.
