I’ve been using Manual management of my Home page from the beginning because I had no use for all the “Discovery” hubs, On Deck, Continue Watching, Recommended, etc. Now it looks like I’m not going to have any choice in the matter.
Please add a way to disable these features in the new design.
this ?
edit: never mind I see you also included continue watching/ondeck, AFAIK there isn’t a way to disable that.
with all home hubs disabled on the server side, I still get these 4 hubs
Right. It seems unpinning is the only way, and that’s not gonna fly.
unfortunately we can’t currently remove the OD/CW hub.
whether that capability will return, is unknown.
you can partially work around by setting these to something you find less irritating:
I just tested setting both “Weeks to consider…” and “Maximum number of On Deck…” values to zero; after doing so the “Continue Watching” hub was removed from my home screen (on Plex Web 4.55.0, at least).
Plex Media Server version 1.22.2.4282.
[Edit to add]
It also removed CW from my iOS devices as well. And my Apple TV 4K.
Hmm, I tried “0” and “-1” in both of those fields. Seemed to work for On Deck, but not for CW.
Your home page appears to be still set to manual. Otherwise OnDeck wouldn’t exist anymore.
There’s another little quirk that will split up the combined CW and OD hub. If you click on “More” and then on your server icon, the hubs are separated. They remain separated even after you have returned to the “Pinned” libraries until you click on “Home” once more. I don’t know if that’s a “feature” or a “bug”.
That’s a wholly different home page. It is this particular server’s home and contains only content hosted on this particular server.
It hasn’t been updated yet, so please don’t mix that into this topic here.
That doesn’t appear to be the case:
It appears that setting the values to 0 or -1 worked, but it didn’t remove an entry that was already on the Continue Watching hub. I marked that movie as “Played” and it was removed. Movies that have been partially played since then have not been added. So maybe an issue there.
Would be nice to be able to control/disable the Continue Watching on a per-library basis. I’ve got my kid’s libraries pinned for easy access but they often stop a movie in the middle and I don’t need it to show up in CW. But I do want my other libraries there.
Hover over the libraries you have for your kids in the side bar and click the 3 dots.
Manage library → Edit → Advanced ->Exclude from home screen
You can also remove individual episodes from the continue watching if you hover over the poster, click the 3 dots there and choose Remove from Continue Watching
