How have I used a newer version of Plex Web?

Can someone please tell me what this message is all about? How could I have used a newer version of Plex Web?

“Any Plex Web settings and customization made in this Plex Web instance will not be synchronized with other Plex Web instances. This is because we have detected you have previously saved settings from a newer version of Plex Web.”

The version of Plex Web at https://app.plex.tv/ is generally the newest available version.

The version on your Plex server at http://ip.ad.dr.es:32400/web is almost always a few versions behind, and best used for initial setup, but it can become very old if the server hasn’t been updated in a while.

Might that explain it?

Thanks for the speedy response. Yes that probably is the case. I think, for me, the confusion is around the fact that Plex “Web” can mean more than one thing - I always think of it as meaning web.plex. I’ve only used app.plex in order to access Discover but I shall be sure to not make any further changes using app.plex.
